Podiatrist haggling prices has had enough

Podiatrist haggling prices has had enough

Here is the link to Reddit. It seems odd for a Podiatrist to haggle about prices via text messages, but here we are.

Very illuminating Rosenslum….. but certainly not surprising to the seasoned podiatrists here at The Podiatry Post. We’ve lived what the students and young technicians have yet to experience. “In Patient” hospital care by a podiatrist? Yeah, we know that means cutting a bedridden patients TOENAILS or at it’s most sophisticated looking at an ulcer or Maybe, Maybe a rash.. Surgeons? Yeah. Check to see that your “Podiatry” dept. is a SUB set of the orthopedics section. PODIATRISTS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO SURGERY WITHOUT AN MD PRESENT IN A HOSPITAL SETTING!!! WHY MR. STUDENT? BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT AN ACTUAL… Read more »

Yep, Jim Ganley was a heavy hitter in my PCPM days. Trained by orthopods in the navy.

Dec 7 2012 #37 stones187 said: Ferocity and dyk343, do you regret going into podiatry? Ankle Breaker, thank you for your response. Not at all. Here’s the problem on SDN and this is relevant to any ‘review’ of anything. When somebody has a negative review, they’ll tell 20 other people. However, when somebody has a positive review, they’ll only tell a few people. You’ll notice that we have a few trolls on the forum that continuously trash podiatry. We’re gonna be surgeons. There losers. Were much better trained then them. We suspect that this person probably failed out of school… Read more »

So doctoral Sybly. Does your intermittent impediment include Tourette’s? With all your vulgarities it might?

Heh ‘Why podiatry failed’–they don’t get it, podiatry was never anything more than a silver-tongued hustler. Kinda like Oshitforbrains (Obuma). They were too busy getting excited about having the next bunion, what ‘impressive’ car to drive, etc.etc. to understand that hustling, soullessness and rank dishonesty was the exclusive prerogative of DP WTFS. It was who they were, and where they came from. It’s IN their “DNA”. A collection of dull folks who were wannabe doctors. It was a six figure money grab with promises of doctorhood and ‘equality’ ‘integral’ member of the team. Can’t wait for that class action. Although,… Read more »

Man I thought I was reading myself! Sir, you caught the “nut” of podiatry. Every word a truth. Now, if we could get 11,999 more like you we can turn this “ship” (of fools) around. Bueno trabajar, Senor.

Sorry Robert, nothing there to turn around. It’s a battleship heading straight for the waterfall.

Why podiatry failed

Redundant, ancillary, many others can do a dp wtf job. Training, education nonconsistent. Training/education outlier from real medical training. Led by mostly corrupt and fraudulent organizations whose principal goal is to extract/extricate money from you. Whether upselling, required bullshit, or other crapola–only costs money, dues, and more fees. To do the podiatry, one must pay dearly and that severe cost is not only money, but time, stress, emotions. You were always a whatsa, the black guy at the country club. Tolerated not really liked. Sure, those MDs will smile at you, be respectful, but after you leave that surgeon lounge…reality… Read more »

So true. So sad. I think it will even get worse. As private equity works it’s way into healthcare, the outcome for low $ producers like Mr. P is even worse. To all those first year students pictured in BM news GET OUT while you can. I have almost 40 years in podiatry and everyday I still ask why. To those “white coat” recipients cut your loses. Find something else do to.

Sibly! YOU SAID, you were going away! And you’re here! Were you NOT TELLING THE TRUTH?! Like the lawyers say in court, “Sir, if you were lying then….. WHY SHOULD WE BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU SAY NOW”! Why do you string some sentences together than FAKE THAT YOU CAN’T LATER? What’s wrong with you man? Chron’s doesn’t affect speech patterns. I know because I’m a “dr”! I went to foot tech school and am “just like”.

Haggling? Wow, how american, hustlers, hucksters, and more ways to get that loot. Empty, soulless, and dead. A failed empire of imperialists/corporatists/careerists whereby nothing mattered, and anything went as long as you get more $ more $ more $. Fuck it–we’re too old for this shit. Gotta fiddle that faddle as we sit in the saddle eating our turds and whey. WTF. Ways to help improve one’s life post-podiatry thing. In our car, we never turn on the radio-ever. we have about 700 classical CDS, and listening to them when we drive puts us in a much nicer place than… Read more »

Podiatrists just can’t seem to get away from TOENAILS. If there is anything that says podiatry to the public it’s TOENAILS and TOENAILS are what Reddit readers are talking about. Note the comment about fees. “You can haggle with DOCTORS if you’re self pay. I’m not so sure about PODIATRISTS”!! Well, so much for “just like”. Even the public DIFFERENTIATES PODIATRISTS FROM DOCTORS. See, you’renuot fooling as many people as you think Mr. P. . Another comment asks why Beauty Schools don’t cut toenails. One person said she didn’t want to touch feet. Talk rear foot Varus and IM angles… Read more »

Podiatry was a huge mistake

The patient/client/customer/whomever simply does not value your services. Period. Perhaps, you could show them your $314,293 student loan bill +interest to prove to them all that “edumacation”. However, they dont give 2 shits about you or your DPMETRY nonsense of clipping. IF they did, they would understand your training, expertise, talent, and NOT haggle over your prices/cost/remuneration. Do they haggle over a cardiothoracic surgeon “costs”? Or a neurosurgeon? That cartier jewlerly, the lamborghini, the season tickets at the basket game, the miele appliances, the well built home with great fixtures, etc..etc…Fuck no. WHY?? Because most with a brain understand quality… Read more »

I have to laugh at your post……………….

re: Podiatry a Huge Mistake

Because everything you state is 100% spot on.

Yes, Glenn Gastworth sure did ride that escalator up and down from the 5th to 6th floor at the NY clinical meeting in Times Square every year. And yes, always had a big smile on his face. The smile almost looked fake. He paid for nothing out of his own pocket. “I don’t get it”.
Was paid over $500,000 per year for smiling and not elevating podiatry
