Robert, it’s not just PA’s who are “killing podiatry”. People now go to urgent care centers for all the simple easy money boy scout merit badge first aid needs like broken toes, ankle sprains, simple infections. More primary care doctors are treating basic foot problems, especially in managed Medicare plans. More referrals go to foot and ankle orthopods. Many health care providers do wound care. There are many over the counter products and arch supports, etc. that work as well as the crap foisted on patients in podiatry offices. People also are getting good information on their computers and phones.… Read more »

$120,000-$179,000 (at best)……..and this artificial number is gross. Net After taxes and fees etc etc etc, take home is likely much less.

The gross above is about the salary of a jr high school teacher in ny or ca without the massive tax subsidized benies.

Who’s the fool?!?!

Speaking abt gravy trains, we got some dp wtf lifers orgasming about an MD who praised them on some site. Firstly, that MD is paid speaker, he writes books and gives paid pep talks, him dick riding dp wtfs is yet another tactic to expand his reach-audience for clicks, paid pep talks to another bunch of suckers—dp wtfs, etc..

In sum, another clown in the US circus.

When will the “lifer type” podiatrists get it? Podiatrist GURNICK complains about SPECIALISTS reimbursement. He goes into exquisite detail of why specialists should get paid more than a primary. He furthermore, asks, “what can we do about it”? Well, I have an answer. FIRST REALIZE AND ACCEPT that you are NOT A SPECIALIST. YOU are not even a DOCTOR. Podiatry IS NOT CONSIDERED A MAINSTRAM MEDICAL SPECIALTY ANYMORE THAN CHIROPRACTIC IS. Podiatry, optometry, chiropractic are ISOLATED ISLANDS OF NON MEDICAL SCHOOL GRADUATES! So, Mr. Gurnick, the only thing you can do about it is stop paying dues to the APMA… Read more »

I find it interesting a podiatrist suggests we should do vascular surgery for lower extremities. Sure, we’re double boarded in general and vascular surgery. We could handle complications too. We should stick to spinal stimulation devices , not

THE PODO POLITICIANS will have some excuse for this DYING “PROFESSION”. (It’s the world’s best kept secret) Sure must be because no one knows or cares about podiatry. PA’S are killing podiatry. Who needs podiatrists anymore? 6 thousand apply to medical school and 90 (just 90, NOT 90,000!) want to be NON MD foot salesmen. Maybe the schools can give out more of those “fake scholarships”. Like a good Manhattan business, they MARK UP THE TUITION and then have a “sale”. Such a deal Irving. It’s gotta be tough doing 7 years and still do less than a regular DOCTOR.… Read more »

NO one does podiatry unless theyre desperate, or any capitalistic -corporate US doctoring these days, unless they got huge interest bearing loans, rug rats, divorce payments, etc…… Empowerment is being a LA or NY fire”fighter”__collecting a 6 fig pension for life, another 7 fig payout, intentional understaffing for huge OT (overtimes), disability time from office chair “injuries”, having sex on the job, sleeping, working out, washing a truck, more sex on the job, with copoius amounts of “service” “hero” propaganda Also, less than 2 percent of calls are fire related and it is amongst the most safe jobs.

Around my neighborhood it’s not unusual to see UNION UPS or FedEx drivers and teachers in the middle of the afternoon sunning themselves or doing yard work. The teacher couple next door both drive Bmw’s and vacation every chance they get and they get a NICE FAT PENSION FOR LIFE ON OUR TAX MONEY. Pay the teacher tax (aka school tax) or get YOUR HOUSE LEINED! And foot techs walk around as if they’re special because they can touch the back of the foot. Go ahead, work ’till your in your 70’s and end up with no pension requiring you… Read more »

How many miracle wound healing products have been endorsed for how many years by Armstrong, Rogers, Frykberg, Snyder, Ross, Wu, and others ? Where there are wound care products there is money to be made. End of story. Just ask Presents. Or LER. Or Podiatry Today. Or PM News. Or any wound care organization. Everyone is cashing in. It ain’t gonna stop. Too much money changing hands. The patient ? Nobody cares.

The patient is just an inconvenient, but necessary, cog in a foot business’s profit. Whether it’s sales of wound coverings or shoe inserts, IT’S THE SALE THAT MAKES PODIATRY A BUSINESS, NOT A PROFESSION. Sales and money started Chiropodiatry in the Manhattan slums, and that DNA still throbs in the nucleus of podiatric politics.

The skin graft substitute scam is costing taxpayers major dollars. More importantly, it is costing patients with wounds, desperate to regain their lives, the opportunity to heal. The wound care scams have made millionaires out of many podiatrists and organizations such as Presents, who base entire meetings on extracting money from wound care companies. Desert Foot was and is the perfect example. How many podiatry seminars have lectures by so called wound care experts paid for by graft companies or wound care product companies? How many times will PM News announce another miracle diabetic foot ulcer cure by the same… Read more »

The same dirty personality morality types run the rag and podiatry. They have been taught to gain and stay in control because they’re special. This type of thinking is Jim Jones, Mao, proselytizing and these mentally damaged men must be removed.

Robert, my opinion is that most podiatrists want to help people. Helping people is what life is about Robert. Podiatrist can help their patients by referring swelling in the leg to have an MD or practitioner licensed to treat the leg refer the patient for a venous Doppler. ” This is what I posted. It is an opinion. This post implies that a licensed podiatrist has an obligation to prevent thromboembolic disease. Where in Chaskin’s post did he suggest a certified podiatrist has no obligation to recognize the signs or symptoms of thromboembolic disease? Of course the licensed podiatrist, in… Read more »

Skin substitutes exceeded 10 billion on 2024, more double than in 2023. More spend on them than ambulance rides. Anesthesia or CT scans.
