Practicing podiatrists: do feel you ‘re passengers on the titanic?

Can this stupid NON MD trade talk about science? PHONG LE says “socks are essential” and podiatrist ALVAREZ says exercising in bare feet is beneficial, and it’s big news that an Irish NON MD podiatrist girl ran in a Marathon. No wonder MD’s look at podiatry as somewhere between a chiropractor and a P.A.. Podiatrist F. BERG GIVES A WOODEN PLAQUE to an M.D. as if the appreciates the essentially meaningless piece of wood. Yeah, I’m sure the MD wants to hang up a plaque given by NON M.D.’S. But podiatrists, who routinely sprinkle plaques liberally, think it’s desirable and… Read more »

The myth and fantasy that a podiatrist is the master of lower extremity biomechanics is perpetuated like the secret handshake of podiatry club membership. Podiatrists have NOTHING to do with hip or knee biomechanics or surgery, and most not even the tibia or fibula. Ankle implant design ? Limb prosthetic design, function, use, prescribing ? Bracing for non-neurological or neurological or congenital deformities ? Research and… Read more »

Yes Hallux Guy, After biomechanics INDOCTRINATION, in what, the second year? and all that McQuactic talk in the following years, even I felt compelled (though never believed) to follow the con, especially when I found out it helped pay the bills. Funny how one will RATIONALIZE something when it has a positive outcome. (not necessarily for the patient but for the bottom line). It took awhile for me to ask myself, what am I doing, do I believe in what I’m doing, or is it just an expediency? Many pods never question THEMSELVES and just accept the con because it… Read more »

“Many pods never question THEMSELVES and just accept the con because it makes money”
Take a Man of integrity to state this. Most dmps are beyond repair because they internalized all the lies and misrepresentations. They lust after money and power. Many belonging to a similar group. They can’t help themselves because it’s unconscious.

The false reality of podiatry is like a potemkine village. Simply facades of exteriors nothing inside.
