Is COVID going to create a lost generation of Podiatrists?

Is COVID going to create a lost generation of Podiatrists?

Here are the facts of Coronavirus and COVID. The most vulnerable Podiatrists to be wrecked by bankruptcy and unable to ride it out are the recent residency grads and June Residency Grads. All one has to look at is the PM News classified section today. There were three ads for jobs or practices for sale. To give one an idea, that classified section normally has between 12-13 job opportunities. To take that and project it forward we have seen an 80% drop off in job opportunities for Podiatry grads due to the Coronavirus. Now add on to the fact that the first Podiatrists being laid off during the COVID shutdown have been the young Podiatrists. The recent hires of last year, the Podiatrists just hired by medical groups and hospitals have already been let go.

I know a lot of people’s response is “Oh they will catch on sooner or later somewhere”. Really? How do you know that? This very similar dynamic took place with lawyers and law schools between 2008-2010. Basically, during the great recession lawyers could not find jobs and ended up taking other jobs and getting into other fields. And you know what, not a lot of them ended up being lawyers. Here is a strong article from slate in 2015 that discusses the lost generation of lawyers and what became of them:

https://slate.com/business/2015/04/job-market-for-law-school-grads-what-happened-to-the-lost-generation-of-j-d-s.html

Now Podiatrists like to believe in the profession that the recent grads are the best surgeons and most knowledgeable. Well then, are Podiatrists about to lose a lost generation? One of the problems with Podiatry is this is not being discussed enough. I mean enough of Cindy Pelazza writing some nonsense in the PM News. This problem is not going to be fixed by Podiatrists figuring out how to bill telemedicine. When there was a residency crisis Podiatry took it seriously and helped save a bunch of Podiatrists. Where is the urgency here? Podiatry is about to lose an entire generation of Podiatrists and nobody seems to care. The APMA cannot even stomach to put out anything that members are struggling and being destroyed due to COVID. Yes, there are no easy answers, but Podiatry is staring a lost generation of Podiatrists right in the face.

I ckd the video. First of all its nearly an identical COPY of the Caribbean MEDICAL school videos and those have been out for years so podiatry COPIED (like Barry Block does daily). Ck St. George’s or St. Matthew’s. Also, the brainwashed lifer lies have already started. They have the “white coat” doctor apparel. They throw the word physician around and “becoming a DOCTOR”. They call PODIATRY school MEDICAL SCHOOL. Podiatry is not mentioned much. NO shame. No honesty. Notice how quickly they go past THEIR part in clinic exams. They do FOOT exams and tape and HELP THE D.O.… Read more »

Schmeck is right. You knew podiatry was going to sneak under the tent to LOOK LIKE THEY’RE IN THE GAME. Just like a bench warmer struts the field in his pristine UNPLAYED IN UNIFORM. Purple toes and PORPHRYIN METABOLISM. Hemoglobinopathies and Beta Chains. As if any podiatrists really needs to know or really learned that in a footville franchise school. Rear foot varus, Origami leather shoes, billing codes, fasciitis (again and again)… and slippers. PODIATRY CAN’T STOP LYING. IT JUST CAN’T. LYING IS AS INTEGRAL TO PODIATRY’S CONTINUANCE AS A STETHASCOPE IS TO A CARDIOLOGIST. RosenSPLATT’s BARK is worse than… Read more »

The podiatric “residents” like to act all ‘big and bad’ appearing to do things or being affiliated with doing things medical/surgical in the hospital during the footsy “training” that they will NEVER EVER be allowed to do once they leave the post grad “training” program. They like to take pics with real doctors as if they were DOING the real medical procedure–acting 101–look the part, be the part–it was part of the podiatry CON and then larry can cut/paste/manipulate for the propaganda site. Just like pots/pans were tools for chef. Lying, bullshitting, misrepresentations, and various gradations of fraud were tools… Read more »

bc they love retesting fees. it’s all about money. Vile conartists. Yes, perhaps there’s more than a few DP WTFS that can’t pass the test. But 38% means that the test likely is not representative of what the training program is at hospitals. They flunk folks to get more revenue for the retest fees. BS FEES FEES FEES. CONsumerism.

We had a customer (patient), Sal who ate the grande thick crust luigi special from Mario’s pizzeria on 7th street. A day later he had a purple toe. Then there was Tony’s kid, Diego. He had a meatball hoagie a few weeks ago–gave him the shits. Last week, he came in with a purple toe. It may be too early to tell, but if you eat at Mario’s pizzeria on 7th, you could get a purple toe, says washed out dancer dmp fighting for relevance in so what propaganda management “news”.

Dr. Chaskin,

Do you not realize that organized podiatry is one big fraud ?
Even Barry Block is aware of this, however he chooses to look the other way.
For example he still admires Hal Ornstein, even after being thrown out of the AAPPM, for embezzlement.

RosenB…..you copied and pasted the info you posted on PM fake news. NO DPM has that kind of knowledge, especially one at your age. You went to DPM school when they didn’t even know about DNA and I don’t think clipping toe nails makes you an expert to speak your opinion. If I am wrong , send me a copy of your Internal Medicine residency certificate from a ACGME accredited residency. LOL, of course you can’t. DPMs love to hyper-exaggerate what they think they know. and PM fake news will post anything…except the truth that DPM land is going away….

See what you’ve done Barry? 20+ years of banning the truth and reinforcing the lie produces podiatrists like ROSENBLATT. These brainwashed propagandized podiatrists are DANGEROUS. Some how their quack school orthotic fabricating basement lab has been transformed into a hemato-pulmonary lab (in their mind anyway) . It couldn’t be anything else because Rosenblatt says the MD’s are wrong (the MD’s don’t know anything about the blood or lungs!) but Rosey has the answers the MD’s with their inferior education and inferior 5 year MD ACGME residencies just can’t compete with.

Rosenflatus is still yammering. What research fellowship in ID/immunology did he attend? Hopkins?

So, stating facts, truths, realities in a frank/clear manner is “anger” to the podiatrickal establishment and worthy of being “banned”. Banned by whom? Lifers, brainwashed lackeys, mentally ill dp wtfs-Those they cant deal w/truth or their bank account not swelling enough from the idiots that believe in podiatrickal wonderment?

Just a lil observation. The us left and right argue about nearly everything, manicheanism. black or white “thinking.” All good or all bad. With us or against us. Need to have an “enemy” all the time to feel alive. No nuance. Very us-ian. Making extreme emotional accusations about each other to trigger the Homer simpson populace.

Humans are to the earth as My Corona is to them. Sociology not advanced from the middle ages, vastly eclipsed by its technology. Living for today/tomorrow without regard for the long-term consequences. “Must keep the shareholders happy”. Not thinking about the possible future results by what has been done, but maybe more importantly, what has not been done. And not using both to mitigate a shitshow.

They can. They can apply, compete, and, IF accepted, start from the very beginning because their dpm is not recognized. Think of it. Supposed DOCTORS applying to nursing school! That says a lot for real podiatry. It’s not the podiatry the lifers say it is, is it?

Some of those so called chiefs, directors had a deep sadness in the eyes. Not saying this lightly. Perhaps many podiatrists realized their career and or life was a bad joke. Depression and hopelessness. There’s only so much faking it and pretending one can do. Thick rimmed glasses, stern looking lifers, low pitched voices, scrubs, un-academic journals, beeper, the stetho, inferiority complexes, etc. All the cult like Podiatry creed and mantras were meaningless, it’s shows in the eyes. They died a long time ago. Walking dead.

Ha! Just looked at the Student Podiatry site. It’s a mirror reflecting how desperate podiatry is. Students (customers) are getting interviews nearly anywhere they apply. A few were offered “scholarships” right at the interview! One desperate franchise offered $15,000 on the spot. Guess 15 grand is the price it costs to get $150,000. Don’t think podiatry schools aren’t run by clever businessmen who know how to keep profitable. To prove podiatry is a fall back for rejected students one guy said he applied to MD/DO/QUACK SCHOOLS.
