Dear 3rd year : A REAL doctor is an MD or DO. Chiropractors, Optometrists and Podiatrists ARE NOT DOCTORS. They are ALLIED HEALTH providers with a “doctorate”. Podiatry residency programs ARE NOT ACTUAL RESIDENCIES. They DO NOT FALL under ACGME criteria. Essentially, they are “preceptorships”, and unlike MD/DO RESIDENCIES, would not exist if it were not for the ECONOMIC benefit (economic not medical) to the hospital fund.

Actually, there are diabetic foot ulcers treated by podiatrists. So any treatment to improve such an ulcer may be interpreted by a state board of podiatry as being in scope to treat a foot condition. Thus take any drug, so long as that drug is being used to treat a foot condition, a state podiatry board has the discretion to interpret of such a treatment is within scope. This is not true in states where podiatrists may be defined as podiatric physicians and there is no state board of podiatry. It all depends on what state one is licensed in.

Still need a permission slip from a PA, “dr”? Still can’t give a Tetanus or Covid immuniztion, “dr”? Still can’t treat DIABETES, “dr”? Still can’t treat ANY SYSTEMIC disease “dr”? Can’t touch the ankle (in many states) “dr”? Don’t know how to read an ECG or Chest X Ray, “dr”? Still need an MD co-admitter, “dr”? Naw, the APMA is doing a great job.… Read more »
Podiatry is really wonderful because many people are helped. Podiatrists love helping people get better. That is what life is all about. Let’s all help each other. Once again, be happy and say nice things about others. It’s about smiling and being happy. Life is very short and so is happiness. Smile. It costs nothing and can help people in this short life.
dpm’s (drs. of PLUMBING medicine) help people out. They are wonderful people and they don’t have to cheat an insurance company. People are glad to pay them CASH! NO ONE ELSE DOES WHAT THEY DO. THEY ARE “THE” SPECIALIST OF WATER AND PIPES WITHOUT WHICH CIVILIZATION WOULD END.
Tell me, who’s more important and “doctoral” in their trade, a plumber or a podiatrist?
Maybe stylby and chaskin can smile together as they dance to the cult beat
Yo Fat Alper ………………….. When will you learn …Barry is a phony piece of shit.
As in dog shit or stale shit.
You’re right. He’s a scum bag. Typical of them. It’s a club and we’re not in it.
That shrimp mfkr is dumber than stale dog shit.
Will say and do anything for a buck. Anything for a buck Barry. Needs to see a rabbi for ethics and morals counseling stat!
My opinions: Wonderful person who is part of the wound care team.
Awesome video.
..and the water boy is part of the team too, Chaskin. Do you accept that you are, at best, an ALLIED HEALTH provider, and nothing more?
He’s really that brain damaged. Now chaskin is telling us to join up for the National foot association and of course lots of dues for ?!?!?
Lol!
yup, $350k+ in tuition / loans to be a ….water boy.
What a racket.
If a podiatrist wanted to have an unlimited license to practice medicine, the might study for a few years get good MCAT scores, apply to medical school with a history of 100 percent residency match and get an MD or DO degree.
Please also understand that every sports team have members that get thirsty. Water is helpful.
A person who helps give a team water is valuable to those team members who are thirsty. It’s all about team spirit.
Team moral is improved when members are no longer thirsty.
Profound….wtf?
Water is helpful. That’s biochemistry to the New Yawk foot college grad.
What is fuck is he talking about. Water is good for you?! That’s a “doctor”?

See a podiatrist and smile!
When you see a podiatrist, you’re happy.
Those are good slogans…for simpletons.
Show us that cat ate canary smile—see a podiatrist today!
Is she smiling? If so, that means she’s “happy” in Danielle’s “brain”.
Danielle, people smile all the time. Doesn’t mean they’re happy. Many times it’s an act. It’s fake. Manipulative or artificial to curry favor.
Please wake up and smell the barge Danielle.

Fat slobs (“trustees” of the cult) visits filthadelphia to talk to hitler youth about the wonders of foot club cultship. Needs their dues monies to help them eat and fly first class. Then a lackey oriental girl with up talking gets to be a “trustee” of the pediatric podiatric club. And jockstrap is retiring after much terms of flatulence. Failed liberal Polly Gap tooth thanks the war mongers for their cervix. Kesselmanns thinks the corrupt gupment is going go after MA—that’s a good one. Maybe they can give more billions to the 51st state and zelenskyys mansions… Only thing missing… Read more »
Terrible characterization..,
Thanks. Appreciate the reaction to truth.
It’s not Hitler comment inappropriate
Sorry to hear that. Instead of hitler youth, how about brainwashed lackeys? Hitler youth appears more fitting bc of their severely propagandized ways. Operation paper clip.
Inappropriate
DPM’s always ask 3rd grade questions. And the “fake” lawyer editor post the questions.

Noth’n. No opinions? No commentaries? Everything’s fine. Disappointing. What about this? I heard Podiatry’s glory and Governmental Messiah, Brad Wenstrup, has decided to retire from Congress. Wasn’t he heralded as the GREAT “PODIATRIC HOPE”? We’d have a Congressional Insider that was SUPPOSED to represent the world greatest profession. He was supposed to “grease the skids” for podiatry’s recognition and entry into the mainstream. Well, IT DIDN’T HAPPEN. Like most Podiatric Lifers, ‘ol Brad dropped the term podiatrist and went with COMBAT SURGEON AND PHYSICIAN. Funny how, when in public, podiatrists shake podiatry off like a piece of soiled toilet paper… Read more »
The podiatrist congressman gets pension from congress for 5 years or more time elected which he has. I assume Medicare and social security too. He should get hired as consultant with APMA and keep party going!
Barry CAN NEVER copy and paste enough of Wenstrup press releases. Barry Block is a pathetic human being.
Block has been keep podiatry mediocre for years. Only DUMB PODIATRISTS let him keep their e mails and exchange their number for money. Being a podiatrist is bad enough, but being a DUMB PODIATRIST is the floor of the Mariana Trench.
The 51 st state and zelenskyy gets billions from tax payers too.
Was that hand to foot combat and applying dancer’s pads? To qualify as a combat surgeon requires a residency in GS and attaining the rank of major (with board certification). The MOS for a combat surgeon on a FAST team Forward Advanced Surgical Team is MOS J61…podiatrists are not combat surgeons. Another BS politician. If someone asks what his MOS (military occupational speciality) is, it would shatter his ego.
Hi Eddy, He claims he was colonial and Combat surgeon!
Thanks Sybly. He can’t BS congress about becoming a Colonel…even Lt. Col (aka) terminal Col-Not a derrigatory rank, admirable – So he must’ve done something decent. The “combat surgeon” thing is a big deal that can get you dead. So the guy might have some sack.
Yes, Eddy. When the details are examined, podiatry fails. That’s why I’m ASHAMED that I spent (in my case 5 years) of my youth in a con. When I realize what I COULD do with what I was propagandized I WOULD do, my bitterness against the LIARS began. There is an intrinsic characteristic in a LIFER that finds the TRUTH an INCONVIENIENCE that must be hurdled. The profession wouldn’t have remained as stagnant as it is if it weren’t for DELUDED LYING MEN RUNNING IT. The IRONIC thing is that these LIFERS are UNAWARE that everyone in the mainstream SEES… Read more »
Diabetes, diabetes, diabetes. Podiatry has all it’s eggs in one (diabetes) basket. That’s about the only disease you hear about, and yet, NO PODIATRIST CAN TREAT THE DISEASE ONLY THE MANIFESTATIONS THAT REQUIRE MECHANICAL MANUAL SCRAPING AND SHOE OR BRACE SELLING. Barry Block brings out the propaganda selling point in the usual way. Of course it’s the old lie (line?) that we know Mc quactics, and off loading, and surgery and no one else does. Sure. No MD or PA knows anything. The only thing they don’t know is Mc Quactics and that’s not a big deal. But, podiatry has… Read more »
Robert, if people are smiling this generally means they are happy. Life is very short and so is happiness. We can feel happy for all those who spread lots of smiles and joy throughout our wonderful country during our very short, but happy lives. Let’s help people by smiling. Please remember, smiling is contageous.
I think mental illness might be contagious. How was your family?
Hey Robert, someone else is also posting as Podiatrust.
That shit gets confusing. We’re here so mizewell use the same handle.

Gotta “love” Ms smith selling podiatry to a nursing home with dine with ahem …”doc”. Most of the geriatric audience looks asleep while the dp wtf looks constipated -clenching her rear end giving the agita spiel.
Then the “god bless america” sign on the wall in back of the saleswoman.
Couldn’t be more fitting to the business enterprise masquerading as a country filled with hucksters and hustlers.
Hey! Do you guys have as many GOOD FEET ADS ON RADIO AND TV AS I DO? How about the one where the MD Orthopedic Surgeon RECOMMENDS THE GOOD FEET STORE! Why didn’t she recommend the worlds greatest profession? Afterall…WE know BIOMECHQUACTICS. To hear the APMA POLITICIANS you’d think pods and orthopods are working hand in glove (uh, foot in shoe?) because we’re “just like”. No? I guess when it comes down to it, all that varus, valgus, compensation, post, no post, cast, digital picture BS doesn’t do all that much. The Good Feet Store is teaming with customers and… Read more »
Ask them. Ask the former shysters at that footy club. Eat, fly first class+ spouse, pep talks, eat, smile, stay in deluxe hotel suites, eat, softball scripted “interview”, eat, smile. And f ups still pay dues to these clowns.
Virbulis is an overweight blonde with a hollow head. The same as all of her apma bot counterparts.
They are all losers.
Poor delusioned lifer. And you thought orthotics were really like contact lenses didn’t you? Optical PHYSICS can be quantitated and proven, but those finger measurements, gentian violet, plaster casts or foam boxes CAN’T!. Yes YOU WERE CONNED. Podiatry NEEDED SOMETHING to say they were different (better). Now that it turns out Orthopedic surgeons and professional athletes are recommending THE GOOD FEET STORE, you’re stuck with your plaster covered finger up your “canal”. Didn’t you catch on when practically NO INSURANCE COMPANY RECOGNIZED OR PAID FOR THOSE STUPID PLASTIC SUPPORTS YOU SELL? I know it’s easier to blame us then to… Read more »
It’s me again, I’ve noticed that you say that podiatrist aren’t real doctors. Can you explain what you mean by that? Also what’s with the podiatry residency programs in terms of how they are classified with the government? Thanks!
Dear 3rd year : A REAL doctor is an MD or DO. Chiropractors, Optometrists and Podiatrists ARE NOT DOCTORS. They are ALLIED HEALTH providers with a “doctorate”. Podiatry residency programs ARE NOT ACTUAL RESIDENCIES. They DO NOT FALL under ACGME criteria. Essentially, they are “preceptorships”, and unlike MD/DO RESIDENCIES, would not exist if it were not for the ECONOMIC benefit (economic not medical) to the hospital fund. See, Podiatry was never really accepted in hospitals. Around 1980-ish, HMO’s PPO and other insurance plans were developed and THEY EXCLUDED PODIATRY and were also very restrictive on hospital charges. Hospitals were closing… Read more »
Thank you for that answer. I have really been trying to find out more and more about podiatry. My intuition from the beginning of this podiatry journey had told me something just isn’t right here and it’s not adding up. I didn’t even realize just how much the schools lie and just how many problems plague the field. Any other information you guys here can share is greatly appreciated!
Here’s the main point to take home. PODIATRY WILL NEVER CHANGE DESPITE THE LIE THAT “WE’RE MAKING PROGRESS” AND “WORKING HARD”. You are on the roller coaster and will ride it to the end unless you GET OUT OF THE CAR NOW! I know you paid for your ticket and it may be embarassing to get out but if you don’t you are in for a SCARY LIFE TIME RIDE. Either cut your losses or spend the REST OF YOUR LIFE DEPRESSED AND FRUSTRATED LIVING WITH A LIE AND AMONGST LIARS. You’re only other hope is to discard reality, convince… Read more »

Those like Mr. Chaskin, who speak of being happy and have wide painted on smiles, ARE NOT HAPPY INTERNALLY. Mr Chaskin keeps trying to convince HIMSELF that he’s happy. I guess he’s SUPPRESSED his sadness about never getting a program. For decades he complained that he couldn’t move out of New Yawk (where 100 years later) few pods still can’t touch an ankle.
Mr. Chaskin, You and Your friend (Barry the shoe pervert Block) are fooling no one. Internally you’re both an UNHAPPY MESS. Perhaps that’s why you two find SOLACE IN A SHOE.
Hey Robert, I did not post that. Someone else is posting as Podiatrust. Can you tell which one is the real Podiatrust?
By the way Robert,
have a wonderful day.
“Minus checks” = Reality

What is the good feet store?
What are the requirements one needs to meet to earn the APMA Seal of Approval?
The GOOD FEET STORE is a commercial venture that is very successful selling arch supports and proving that PODIATRIC BIOMECHANICS FOR ARCH SUPPORTS IS A FRAUD AND A GIMMICK TO PROVIDE A “SECRET REASON” FOR PODIATRY TO EXIST. SEE? The LIE is that only podiatrist were taught the SACRED MYSTICAL LAWS OF NATURE REGARDING THE FOOT. NO ONE else knows anything about the foot. The Good Feet Store is recommended on Television and Radio by Star professional athletes and even Orthopedic surgeons. I’ve never heard a podiatric arch support mechanic recommended that way. The GOOD FEET STORE IS ANOTHER example… Read more »
Do you see the SUBTLETY in the podiatry scam? Why do you think podiatrists have so many stories about themselves and those stories really have little substance? It’s because podiatry has VERY LITTLE ELSE TO OFFER. You’ll see many repetitive typical stories about podiatry VOLUNTEERS. They look good SUPERFICIALLY, but when you delve deeper, you see podiatry’s assistance is very LIMITED. Sports medicine (that’s another con but more on that later) helps special Olympics. Really? Aside from some calluses or blisters what’s done? Note how many plaques and pictures surround podiatry but very very very few of them are for… Read more »
Podiatry is a 3rd rate carvival. A flunky circus with bearded ladies and mental midgets creating shows, distractions, and diversions for the dolts to step right up. Step right up and step into #2. Enjoy the decline.
The INDIAN GIRL FROM THE U.K. SAYS YOU’VE GOT TO “LIKE FEET” AND “GIVE IT A GO”. Look at her. Sloppy looking, wearing an APRON and a mask working for the government but NOT BEING ALLOWED TO ACTUALLY TREAT THE DIABETES. NO. That’s the work for MD’s and their assistants. The manual dirty scraping and toenail work is done by the CHIROPO-PODIATRISTS. She calls herself a DIABETES-PODIATRIST. Man, this dirty profession has more subspecialties than all of medicine and yet NO PODIATRIST can actually treat anything systemic, and that applies to the U.S. AND ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE POND… Read more »
Actually, there are diabetic foot ulcers treated by podiatrists. So any treatment to improve such an ulcer may be interpreted by a state board of podiatry as being in scope to treat a foot condition.
Thus take any drug, so long as that drug is being used to treat a foot condition, a state podiatry board has the discretion to interpret of such a treatment is within scope.
This is not true in states where podiatrists may be defined as podiatric physicians and there is no state board of podiatry. It all depends on what state one is licensed in.
This guy MUST be examined for mental competence. Anyone in NY or NJ on the state boards that have read his ramblings over the years? It is incumbent on you to assure the public’s protection. Look for an office with bars on the windows next to a collision shop. There may be shoes or shoe pictures around.
Hey, I did not post that. Whoever posted that has a sense of humor.
But I do want to say that joining the APMA has its advantages.
One can socialize, meet friends have fun etc…
Podiatry is wonderful because many people are helped. Once again, be happy and say nice things about others. Life is short and so is happiness.

Since Dmps have lots of discretion to do funny things maybe It would be nice to have a symposium on the use of iron bars over windows and doors in new yawwwk shitty.

Floridian Lenny Levee loved Chinese food. Don’t believe me. Ask his widow.
Once again you missed the point. Treating diabetes is NOT THE same as treating (scraping and off loading) the sequalae of. No drug used to “treat the foot condition” treats the disease in the intrinsic state. Nice try to make podiatry seem more than it is. Podiatrists are still the handmaiden assistants doing what the MD CAN’T BE BOTHERED WITH. One more thing. Why is podiatry always needing to see “what’s in scope”? Answer: Because they ARE NOT ACTUAL DOCTORS AND HAVE TO REGULATED AND WATCHED BECAUSE THEY ARE ,BY DEFINITION, NOT COMPETENT TO TREAT THE WHOLE PERSON. That is,… Read more »
Give it a go. Yup-sounds like a doctah. Nope. Rest of world see them as chiropodists/pododologues. Glorified toe nail cutters – cobblers.
Aptly so.
And, the APMA, QUACK COLLEGES, AND EXTORTING CONTROLLING “BOARDS” LIKE IT THAT WAY. Podiatry is profitable for a small group and they control it so there is no incentive to change. That’s selfish and dirty.
