The Board debate, the poor attendance at the APMA, all this gasping and whining all comes down to the idiots in Podiatry losing power and being upset about it. How dare a board actually make a test that is hard and requirements that are difficult so the certification means something. How dare people not come to APMA meetings to support the same idiots giving the same talk about the same subject. What about the idiots?
Podiatry has supported idiots that knew whose ass to kiss for so long. Now a lot of Podiatrists have wised up. There are only so many businesses Rem Jackson can fail at before people wise up. There are only so many lectures from bankrupt Podiatrists before people wise up. There are only so many times you can be told to biopsy a fungal toenail before people wise up. There are only so many Podiatrists that go to jail for Medicare fraud for performing billing tasks advocated at these forums before going to jail before people wise up. So I am sorry idiots. I am sorry your power is failure that your grift is ending. Move on.
Most DP WTFS were like a kid obsessed playing with his belly button.
Amazing that the podiatry fraud (of being actual specialists) has lasted so long. There can be only one answer why and that is, that the TRUTH HAS BEEN BANNED AND CENSORED BECAUSE THE TRUTH WOULD HAVE TOPPLED PODIATRY A LONG TIME AGO. As I read the TRUTHS well outlined in The Podiatry Post it is striking how BAD THE PODIATRY PROFESSION REALLY IS. Self serving, money hungry leaders. For Profit franchises ( 5 for decades now still only 9) Compare that to even accounting schools! Over and over examples of podiatric lying, billing tricks, inferior education, limited license. Half the… Read more »
Truth was the “garlic” of podiatry, similar to Nosferatu
Hey Jeffrey Lehrman ……… is that salty taste in your mouth from the salt lake? Have you and James the Executive Disaster been extra busy at the National ? Did you find that AmericanJello works as well as K-Y ? Did the Moron offer you and the Executive Disaster a free lube job ? Does AmericanJello prevent the spread of viral infections ? Enjoy the biopsy toenail lecture and the topical treatment of fungus nails lectures. Is your fantasy to dress up in bed with a Moore-on Balance Brace on each ankle, a PM baseball cap, and a Codingline Speedo… Read more »
Traum, you’re replies are complex and thought out. I see how you frame the problem but what is the answer for us US-ians, wtf’s, and, apparently, capitalism? You must have a view about how to obtain rectitude.
R–respect your commentary and great input. Most USians were morons, and us capitalism is what did us in. Other than what’s in it for me, and get more $, there was nothing here but kabuki theatre and empty rhetoric of “greatness.” Sounds like pody land. We do not offer any perfunctory last chapter of bs “hope” or aims/actions/we ought toos'” that’s very american–that happy smiley face can do bs. There is NO answer. Or midnight action plan. The chance of anything in the us substantially improving would be akin to turning around an aircraft carrier in a bathtub. We did… Read more »
What is amazing is that once one becomes a DPM they lose all sense of reality and believe that an orthotic saves a life and a corrected hammer toe cures cancer. They have lived off the backs of CPT codes used by ortho and derm and PV etc etc. They do not recognize or understand that 21st century analytics has caught onto their coding scheme. The do not see the replacement team ( PAs and NPs) coming in to boot them all out. They rationalize they are surgical subs specialists in an era where surgery will be the last resort… Read more »
We recall reading the evaluations of various dp wtfs and others who said that “changes” to podiatry was on the order of design, or window-dressing, puff, thk–honey on turds; that in terms of real educational/training advance, they contributed 0. In short, that it was all show and no substance, which can probably said of the nation/poorfession itself. Porkject 2015, bueller, bueller? Many dp wtfs have serious dinero in the bank; they were supreme hu$tlers. Their slaves/employees committed suicide, insurance fraud, slip/fall through construction sites at night, rampant corruption, neponomics, got stress-related diseases by working “hard” for that someday that never… Read more »
Unable to recognize their own incompetence…”Allergy to reality,”. T, this needs to be in print. There’s an easy way to do this, and doesn’t cost anything. Of course podsters may be pissy; threaten assault, make demands, but in the end do nothing. eddy.mex@aol.com (I’ll show you step by simple step how to get this out—Maintaining anonymity. Use a throw away email. Stay invisible…works for me. You writing has a Thomas Pynchon, Vonnegut, Hunter Thompson, W Burroughs tone with a twist that’d put lifers in the middle of a cornfield wondering “what the stalk?” as crop dusters is going on.

Thanks E. Will consider your thoughtful suggestions and appreciate your commentary and R’s.
The job of Podiatry blues is not to provide the truth or legitimate information to the idiots. The job of The Barrister is to keep the sheep in line and following the wishes of the self serving money pocketing APMA leadership and fill PM News with advertisers. He allowed, willfully, misinformation to be presented. It is the “Village Idiots Free Press”. Right Barry !
Interesting post Seth. So we have a gastric bypass flunky and an alcoholic egomaniac going into the ass hole of flames. A tribute to the world of podiatry stupidity. The head idiot ED James does nothing to advance the profession. He is nothing more than a pimp for criminals and grifters and continues to find them jobs and money scamming opportunities. So long as there are mental midgets like those who write into the podiatry blues on line the money at all costs barrister will smile. He announces himself as participating with a junk journal one tick above Mad Magazine… Read more »
dp wtfs never learn, it’s part of their “charm.” There are videos that show americans beating the crap outta each other at Cartoon land, McDowells, Burger Shit House, Shartmart, you name it: do you think these fellow country-men are political? Do you think they have specific targets in mind, like corporate masters, podiatric “leaders,” wtfs. What exactly wd be the “save/’change’ podiatry” recruitment pitch? Suppose we were to say to them, “The reason yr always on hair-trigger rage, anxious, and are attacking other dp wtfs, restaurants or waiters or folks who are not really doing anything wrong, is that yr… Read more »
Nice, Traum. It’s the question that’ll never be answered as there’s lack of the courage to address it.
Great to read your work T. Thanks–You could easily cut and paste your material and publish (I’ll help) offshore of course. Superb prose—Shaneka—vivid scene. “Ontological stupidity”—Recommended reading. I’ve gotta read this a few times you can’t fake talent T- Eddy
Thanks Bro E. . Perhaps, dp wtfs/USians do not tolerate their version of “reality” fucked with. When their version of podiatric or other fill in the blank “exceptionalism” is compromised, e.g., lack of bacon on a cheeseburger, going bat shit at an amusement park bc they feel slighted, etc…these all fuck with their 10foot sense of deluded self-worth (quasi~ Dunning-Kruger effect) and you go girl-isms. That’s why most USians/dp wtfs appear “off.” They realize on some level that they’re empty/soulless and have nothing really impt in their lives except illusions/delusions/propaganda and of course their hu$tling mantra: get more money; so… Read more »
