Bars on the windows and door podiatry

Lifers / lackies pay for these plaques and paper awards signifying nothing.

It’s a” Steinfeld show award”–a show about nothing.

Obese charlatans and shyster smiling like they’re actually doctors and actually did something of value. over 95% of podiatry is ancillary helper redundant opportunistic questoinable feces. dp wtfs put dentists to shame with their manufacturing artificial needs and hu$tler profit centers, etc. Hucksters, shysters, cons, and fool’s games.

Mr rogers neighborhood: (student imbecile site)

Mr rogers:
“The difference is that I’m not just looking for someone to come in and do a job. I’m looking for a professor at the top of their game who can be an NBA podiatrist. So yes, a fellowship is necessary.”

Dmp Respondent:
“That’s certainly understandable and I can see the need for a professor at the top of their game to make shoe recommendations for NBA players.”

Lol or write up puff piece advertisements talking about a professional player’s injuries as the real doctors did all the work. Another podiatrick shyster tactic.

It’s Saturday, I have the radio on, ( No I don’t follow that no electricity on Sat. thing) and there’s a “Senior Discussion” about FOOT PROBLEMS. The female radio personality is interviewing the OWNER OF A S.A.S. SHOES. Listening to him was depressing. I may as well have been sitting in a multi-hundred dollar expensive foot tech seminar. It all sounded the same. This NON PODIATRIST, NON DOCTOR sounded like every podiatrist I ever heard. Fasciitis, pronation, bunions, hammer toes, GOUT vs. Osteoarthritis vs. Rheumatoid arthritis. He even refered to CARDIAC causes of foot swelling! Maybe the shoe store owners… Read more »

The Podiatry “thing” is a racket! An unnecessary middleman with NON MD training and education that somehow conned ($$$?) legislators into recognizing them. The animus between MD’s and DPM’s IS NOT EONOMIC! It is a result of the MD recognition that we’re NON MAINSTREAM, NOT AS WELL EDUCATED, LIMITED, AN IN NEED OF AN MD’S OVERSIGHT when out of our own office. Those major factors are “GLOSSED OVER” when Podiatry defines itself, especially when they’re TRYING TO FILL SEATS IN THOSE FOR PROFIT FOOT SCHOOLS. Oh, are you fooled by a NON PROFIT designation. Yeah that’s, NO PROFIT LEFT AFTER… Read more »

WRONG THINKING leads to WRONG SOLUTIONS BARRY BLOCK. Block quotes an ancient Chinese aphorism that the longest journey starts with the first step. Well, MISTER BLOCK NOT IF the first step is in the WRONG DIRECTION! Once again the LIFER LEADERS FAIL. They fail to address podiatry’s MAIN PROBLEM (POOR NON MAINSTEAM EDUCATION AND TRAINING) and instead posit a Rube GOLDBERG plan to bribe, butter up, and use fancy elocution to CHANGE STATE LAWS “hoping” THAT IF ONE STATE CHANGES A LAW, LIKE AN INFECTION, STATES PROXIMATE TO IT WILL CHANGE ALSO. Not all states are corrupt like New Yawk… Read more »

Podiatry has effectively, through the years, sealed its self off from the medical world. From the Pod schools to the board certification groups to the APMA all vying to capture dollars and denying the changes in healthcare around them. The result, PA school , NP school and foreign med school that teach in English are the much better alternative than Podiatry school. Again, 7 years of Pod education and a limited license does not work in 2023 and beyond. DPMs are hanging on for dear life financially while at the same time fighting which board is real, not dealing with… Read more »

Presents is advertising a new lecture. The lecture is on depression in the diabetic patient. The speaker suggests screening your podiatry patients for depression. A podiatrist ? Screening for depression ? The same people who write into PM News and cannot diagnose foot problems ? And look at the credentials of the loser speaker. ASPS. The phony ACFAS. ABPM. The phony board. And look at this loser, a VA podiatrist. If anyone is depressed it should be this idiot. Who the hell pays to watch this Presents garbage truck ? Now I’m depressed.

This is why EVERYONE SHOULD UNSUBSCRIBE TO BARRY BLOCK’S MISLEADING CON! In the past, BLOCK had little competition so you only read what HE WANTED you to read. Now, with The “Podiatry Post”, HIS MONOPOLY is challenged. Barry Block and PM News HAVE BEEN DAMAGING PODIATRY SINCE ITS INCEPTION in that it painted a misleading, biased picture of podiatry making it appear more than it was. That de-incentivized podiatrists to focus on the PROBLEMS THAT WERE KEEPING PODIATRY A LIMITED LICENSED, NON MAINSTREAM, SUSPECT TRADE. When, if ever, did you read a call for dismantling the biased APMA? When, if… Read more »

Go to the plastic surgeon. And then sue Ray’s Trash Service even though they did no negligence. It’s the APMA way. The DeHeer way ………………

Yes Sybly, Erika DeHeer’s lawsuit should be an embarrassment to her husband surgeon.

I agree if a podiatrist already has a DPM degree starting out why not consider closing down your practice part time to pursue a NP degree
so as to have a good chance of treating the ankle in states such a as NYS as well as eating a good living? It may cost some money and time but just might be worth it to correct an unfortunate situation in some cases.
Above are personal opinions only

There is little to no value telling a college student to consider podiatry unless:

1. Their family is in the foot business—neponomics
2. They dont have access to the internet
3. They are desperate to be called ahem cough, “doctor”
4. They blindly believe the propaganda bc they’re Mentally ill and can’t think independently.
5. Wealthy family and or inheritancer spouse to pay for all the extra schooling for an np degree post podupetry skool

It’s tough for many people who have families to get an NP credential. Maybe if one is really young <30?! At 35 yo or older one is now wedded to that awful podiatry thing. They have student loans, debts, maybe a rug rat, a spouse, a divorce, braces, shit box car, shit box apartment, junky house in a cul de shack, bills, insurances, etc..One can't simply just "change" and get a new degree unless they are not in debt, no spouse, etc. mr chaskin. It sucks and although you may think there's a light at the end of the tunnel,… Read more »

I’m surprised at and somewhat suspicious of some of the findings. Saying thousands of MD graduates are “SHUT OUT” OF RESIDENCIES AND HAVE “NO WAY TO PAY BACK THIER LOANS”! I can’t believe after 4 years in a U.S. medical school, getting an MD, and you can’t ever practice?! I don’t know any MD’s standing in soup kitchens. They may not get the RESIDENCY THEY WANT, but to say they can’t even get a program in Family practice? Also, some of the salaries are suspect. Neurologist only making 272M but Derms make 655M!? and plastic surgeons making less at 545M??… Read more »

Robert Google medical economics and residency shortage. I remember reading that there is no shortage if there were no foreign graduates applying for residencies. There are graduates from foreign medical schools that do apply and when considering all the numbers there indeed is a shortage. Now some foreign graduates might not get matched and consider podiatry as a alternative. The problem is that podiatry colleges of podiatric medicine school should offer advanced placement and not insist a full 4 years is required to get a DPM degree. If I were a foreign graduate who did not get matched I would… Read more »

Google scmoogle. Blah blah. Opinion person you are FOS. There is NOT a residency shortage for MDs. There ARE though, a shortage of preferred slots in certain specialties – Ya’d have to be insane to believe you aren’t gonna get a PGY-1 in some flyover bumfuck state. That’s true podiatry for you, believe bullshit, spread it like “see I told you so I saw it on the internet butter” nonsense. After a PGY-1 you can start looking for desired specialty positions.

Real doctors may get paid that gross with a price not just economic.

Podo dodos are lucky to gross @110-125k. Very few get hospital gigs making up to @220k gross.

Podlings have an Over saturated market with many pods who can’t nor will not retire. Greed and desperation—like the shit neighborhood , high end CONstruction analogy Eddy stated in last blog.

After 11 years, 350k+ interest debts, etc etc. Shit to show for it except hair loss.

What is this brace ??? I would love to know. Did this Podo Dodo, ever in his life, take one of the Indiana Pacers to the OR ? I’ll bet not. Because of his extensive education and dedication to podiatric medicine, Dr. DeHeer invented his own bracing system, the Equinus Brace™. This revolutionary brace helps improve issues with posterior tibial tendinitis and similar conditions. Dr. DeHeer is a leading expert and international speaker for modern podiatry care. Patients of Dr. DeHeer commend his attentive and compassionate bedside manner. He’s even one of the only podiatrists in Indiana who cares for… Read more »

Reads just like a self serving, MISLEADING, SELF AGGRANDIZING article you’d read in Barry Block’s, for “misleading lifers only” PM News. Did he get trained in PEDIATRICS at his quack college? No, not “podiatric pediatrics”, real, actual pediatrics.

Thank you Sir, Madam for your excellent review of the hillybilly foot surgery text in an internet marketplace site. It stated the truth regarding foot and sometime ankle surgery. Loved your metaphor about podiatrists operating is like a blind person painting/described the Grand Canyon. Sorry if I misstated your metaphor Sir, Madam.

As a supplier, Ray’s had a duty to provide bins reasonably suitable for their intended purpose of holding and transporting trash and recyclables to the curb and back. * * * As for the inner rim on which Dr. DeHeer’s wife struck her face, the clearly printed admonition to close the lid before moving informs the expected user concerning the safest usage of the bin. Erika DeHeer testified that she had made it a habit to always close the lid because it was “common sense” to do so. * * * The condition of the rim would have been readily… Read more »
