Wake up and Smell the Feces
Great picture of Lee Rogers in Malta with the ABPM board. And an APMA representative in the Middle East for a wound care conference. And an upcoming seminar in France to supposedly raise money for residents in Houston. And the ABFAS examination committee touring the world for their meetings. It is absolutely amazing. Podiatrists, who are thinking about upgrading to a PA degree (Podiatry Asshole ?) continue to pay and pay and pay for essentially worthless attestations to their alleged competency. Send in your money you fools. The free vacations are appreciated.
Oh and one more thought. They say 50% of podiatry is skin and nail problems. So why not just get a PA degree and skip the time and money and stress of getting a DPM degree ? Think about itA PA can do everything that an office based podiatrist can do. Everything ! Diagnose and treat skin and nail problems. Diagnose and treat sprains, strains, and fractures. Plantar fasciitis. Orthotics. Injections. Everything but hospital based surgery. With the declining poor reimbursement for surgery, who needs it ? Your ego ? Let others do the surgery. Who cares.And as a PA you can expand your scope of practice. Yep. Knees. Hips. Shoulders. Backs. Diabetes. Hyperuricemia. And do not forget reality. Real physicians have more respect for a PA than a podiatrist.
The only conclusion is to forget being a podiatrist. Be a PA and skip the limited license DPM. You can do it all other than “bone surgery”. Make the same money or more. Be closer to being a physician. Have more respect.
Or you can join the DPM parade and pay for others to take free trips while you struggle to make a living. The continuing decline in applicants to podiatry schools tells you that at least some people can smell the feces. And prefer not to step in it………………….

You smell feces? We smell mr rodgers and the oriental lackey
Yeah, you’re DOCTORS ALL RIGHT. Podiatrist Petkov talks about MgSO4 soaks for ingrown toenails. Show that to the P.A.’S and watch them laugh AT YOU. What about a failing field that had 52 training positions CLOSING SHOP? That means, if they were take more students in they may not get training. So, even though they’ve increased the # of schools they have to keep the # of students down. Some profession, huh? I want to get in on the deal where Podiatrist Wojnicki will wash MY feet, trim my toenails, and give me a NEW PAIR OF SHOES AND A… Read more »
Petkock should be talking abt vodka and ballet
RE: Outrageous Shoe of the Day
What XYZ wears when visiting a modern art show?
Hoo-wee the LIFERS are on patrol down voting “trespasses” of the world’s most fabulous perversion…semi-profession. They’re upset, they’re frightened, they’re terrified that their BELIEFS in the triad are becoming an uncertain future. Maybe all the down-votes will silence the INFIDELS who speak poorly of the failed dream of the wannabe carnies standing in line to spin the magic bunion wheel. DOWN VOTE THIS COMMENT – Going for the championship of downvotes and THAT could catapult my comments into the HALL of FAME. I HATE FEET-boohoo boohoo, toe-birds-
If I were a potential student I would worry about spending all that tuition money, and not being able to get a license to practice because of a residency shortage.
I applied 3 times. Got denied after 30 years experience and being board certified by abpm.
30 years ago was so much better. Compassion, kindness, and love is what matters. We need to respect our fellow brothers and love each other.
What is important to you? These are opinions only.
Uh, no shit, they are OPINIONS and these are words and the only compassion for dunces comes in a bottle of piss. DISCLAIMER my opinions are utter nonsense and don’t mean jack-shit BAN PODIATRY THEY ARE A CURSE ON HUMANITY – This is starting to look like the uncensored site when the lifers hit the site like a fart storm…HURRAY DOWN WITH PODIATRY smother it in onions and poo, send em off to jail –
Do I understand you correctly DAN? You’ve been in business for 30 years and your STILL TRYING TO GET TRAINING?! Forget the ABPM. That’s a fall back consolation fake certificate INVENTED BECAUSE THE “CHOICE” BOARD FLUNKS SO MANY. The ABPM was INVENTED, and it’s acceptance FORCED, TO AVOID A LAWSUIT. DPM + ABPM = dpm= 0. Compassion kindness and love??!! You forgot COMPETENCE DAN. You were not competent to get accepted and YOU had more opportunities than I had because I graduated before you when even fewer positions were available. Perhaps a MEDICAL DOCTOR can help you. You have made… Read more »
100%. Danny boy is a fuddy-duddy
He is sooo representative of the weak illogical minds that are common in the LIFER CULT.
Doesn’t change the TRUTH does it? You have NO POWER TO CHANGE THE TRUTH. FIX YOUR BRAIN AND YOU’LL FEEL BETTER ABOUT YOUR FAILURE.
Daniel, Now there is no residency shortage. But, shortage jobs and legitimate ways to earn living!
Shyster mismanagement rag is green! For $ of course. When will it retire? Never, $ was their god.
The lying machine will retire when enough UNSUBSCRIBE to dry up advertiser’s money. Barry Bans and Censors to keep the appearance of podiatry being better than it is. He has to give hope so the “subscribers” feel it’s ok to invest their MONEY in the advertisers products. It’s all about money. It’s always been about money. That’s the NEW YORK CITY SCAM WAY.
The overpopulation of NYC has had a mental effect of survive or die and podiatrists will use what ever scam or ad that pays their cab fare or buys them a cup of cough-eee.
Selling hope for dopes.
Today’s podiatry is cheap and dirty according to Barry Block’s depiction of it. Pink Tie salesman Pinker advertises to get his name and business known. All that time in “school” to talk about SOCKS? He calls his BUSINESS “progressive” foot care. I’ve seen no progression in 40+ years. Still simple talk and ads about socks and bare floors. Not even PA level. Not even LPN level. That’s New York Podiatry. Podiatrist Sutera is another regular ADVERTISER. OH, those poor teachers. They stand on hard floors giving them foot pain. The rest of us stand on clouds and pillows, right? The… Read more »
Suteria dpwtf—who doesn’t stand on hard floors? Is she mentally sick? Or a marketer?
PODIATRIST = MARKETER AND BARRY BLOCK IS HER PIMP.
Franklin Kase told Dr. Jeff DeSantis that “podiatry is the very best of all medical specialities.”
What was Dr. Kase smoken ?
Show me where the AMA ever considers podiatry a specialty, or acknowledges it as anything but a “handmaiden” to mainstream medicine.
You are correct, Robert. Franklin Kase when he was living, was living in a coma. And Jeffrey DeSantis is simply a freaken moron of the 1st degree. And an even bigger fool to even repeat what Franklin Kase told him.
The mental illness in podiatry is never more evident than when negative voter-lifers defy common sense to protect their brainwashed delusion. These are dangerous men who should have their license investigated.
There’s a commonality with these persons. $ and control is their god
That Danny Boyed is the foundation podiatry was started on in the SLUMS OF NEW YORK. THAT PHILOSOPHY CONTINUES TO THIS DAY AND WHY PODIATRY IS A BUSINESS NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSION.
A desperate profession using desperate measures to stay afloat. One quack college (Western U) needs students and clinic patients. They “hired”(?) a former Olympic swimmer to ‘TALK UP THE TRADE’ and “increase awareness”. (heard this for 45 years and awareness is still ??? dpm still is underlined by spell check.) The guy won several gold medals and found out he was a type 1 diabetic so I guess (by association Olympics-diabetes-podiatry) there’s supposed to be a connection. Wow that’s a stretch. I wonder if he wore “CUSTOM” orthotics when he swam. Hey, don’t laugh. If podiatrists and the labs they… Read more »
The swimmer will uptalk podiatry and its wonderment.
Podiatry is a culture that runs on the fuel of intellectual, spiritual and ontologic degradation.
Look at the lifer Traum. He’s votes negative on all the TRUTH’S. This is the half (+) of the profession that keeps us TECHNICIANS. They don’t have the intellectual honesty to accept their TRUE STATE. If they had the mental and EMOTIONAL maturity you’d expect in a DOCTORAL profession dialogue could commence. But, like children, they REFLEXIVELY NEGATE everything not in consort with their delusion. What do you do with this type of individual? We can’t (shouldn’t?) hurt them. We can’t fire them. All we can do is DEFUND THEM AND EXPOSE THEM PUBLICLY so that anytime they attempt to… Read more »
Thank you. Doesn’t it feel good to be honest?
Thank you for PROVING AND SUPPORTING MY OPINION BY VOTING NEGATIVE!
What is up with these negative votes?? Robert speaks the truth you scamming thieves!
a couple of lifers with multiple fictious names to SIMULATE A REALITY OF DISAGREEMENT THAT ISN’T REAL. Lifers even CHEAT in making an opinion. Real discourse? They won’t because their position is untenable so they do what many podiatrists do…. CHEATER through rationalization!
I’ll bet CHEATED IN QUACK COLLEGE by writing answers to exams on their hands.
Back test galore due to lazy / apathetic pod teachers. Most students/ clowns came from 3rd rate undergrads. Whadda expect, oh and ‘diversity’ recruits too.
You just described MEDICAL SCHOOL REJECTS. ( I know. I was one too but realized I wasn’t medical school quality either. But… I accepted it and live with it. I DO NOT LIE OR DELUDE MYSELF THAT I SOMEHOW GOT A SECOND CHANCE. THAT’S WHERE THE LIFERS LOSE
TOUCH WITH REALITY.
Podiatry is a culture dish that grows cannibals.
A podiatrist lifer is driving his new BMW and runs a stop sign colliding with a Porsche. Both cars are totaled, yet both guys are unharmed. The podiatrist gets out and looks at the other driver who’s a bit dazed, but notices the bumper sticker “honk if you love podiatry.” The DPM is amazed they’re both okay, says: “This is a miracle that neither of us are injured, I’m a doctor and can check you out. The other driver looks around and says, “Yeah, it IS a miracle we’re both unijured. You know we should celebrate, I found a bottle… Read more »
Come on Dan/hugh-justin. Are you just going to run down and vote negative without ANY PROOF OF A DIFFERENT OPINION? Please see an MD psychiatrist. You are A DANGER TO THE PUBLIC!
Even PM News couldn’t find much today to fluff up this imposter profession. The closest we have to science is a company that had a PRODUCT to sell for fibromas. They have a podiatrist salesman but unfortunately the “product” failed to provide a STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT result but that’s ok. They’re trying to find something they can claim to bill for. Clostridia Histolyticum collagenase?. Uh Hmm! Maybe 10 pods out of 15,000 knows anything about that. +or-?, gas producing? Any clue about the chemistry or structure of collagenase or how it works? Doesn’t matter Mr.. Can you bill it? Techs are… Read more »
The culture cannot stand the truth—and hates any truth-teller. They don’t want their mythologies and story tymes fkd with.
Podiatry does not obey the laws of nature; it is an obscure–possibly alien–band of misfits who’ve continually slipped through some cosmic crack in the universe. You may ask yourself, “What IS a dp-wtf?” And, no answers will be revealed as the sound of hoofbeats echoes across the shoeshine kit. There are NO hoofs in the world of podiatry.
A lifer was seated in coach on a flight to Las Vegas when he noticed a beautiful woman board the plane. His heart raced as she took the seat next to him and smiled. “Hi, I’m Ginger and I’m a nymphomaniac.” The wtf had a flutter and blushed. “Oh, really?” She sized the guy up and said she was also a sex expert and had examined many gents re their sexual performance. “The French, uh, rotten lovers, and the black men do not have bigger penises, and Asian men do not have tiny weenies, and all MDs just rush it… Read more »
Franklin Kase, DPM according to Jeffrey DeSantis :
I was fortunate enough to have the best wife.
I was fortunate enough to have the best family.
I was fortunate to always be late and make my patients wait and be mad.
I was fortunate enough to practice in the “best specialty of medicine”.
However, I also passed away as a DEAD GIANT, in the very best medical speciality.
Six guys were seated for a round of poker. They started taking and the topic: “What’s you’re gig?” started. Player one, “I’m a garbage man,” 2, “Me? Eh I was a chiropractor” 3. “Anesthesiologist. 4. “Dentist.” 5. “Carpenter.” When it was the podiatrist’s turn he looked around the table, smiled mirthlessly shook his head, and said: “Me? I’m a board certified rear foot and ankle surgeon.” In unison the other players looked at each other, then the wtf and shook their heads said: “HIDE THE CHIPS.” And left. The P swiped all the booze, chips, and decks of cards. When… Read more »
CHiPs — chiropodic hotties in podiatry
Ah! PM News foot follies. Podiatrist Davis can’t understand why the APMA (and other “national organizations”) have failed to get him as much money as an M.D. gets. It’s DISCRIMINATION he claims. NO Mister, it’s EDUCATION AND RESPONSIBILITY. Don’t go blam’n the insurance companies for YOUR FAILURE AND YOUR LIMITATIONS. Remember “if you wanted to be reimbursed as an MD you should have gone to MEDICAL SCHOOL”. BTW MISTER DAVIS, ARE YOU PAYING THE APMA? I’ll bet you are. Let me help you understand another reason why the APMA and other organizations don’t address unequal pay…. they’re insecure and NOT… Read more »
The white tie is a psy op to appear pure, clean, moral. Another trick for marketing.
What do you call an ethical, honest, knowledgeable, well-trained, podiatric surgeon? You don’t. You call a PA.
But SHE (the P.A.) doesn’t know biomechquactics so it’s IMPOSSIBLE for her or any non podiatrist to do foot surgery!
An attending at a medical school asked the fresh group of students what the difference was between an SVT and IPK. One student raised his hand, and proudly said he used to be a wtf and said it loud and proud. He was escorted off the premises.
A lifer-liar will give an exquisite explanation of how treating an IPK is “just as” critical to survival as treating an SVT. Look how often podiatrists compare Diabetic Ulcers as more dangerous than a CANCER diagnosis. Exaggeration and Embellishment all psychological manifestations of that PTSD.
Podiatry fails to thrive because it’s based on a LIE and has liars in CONTROL that want (need) to keep it that way. Podiatry is just not an intellectually honest profession.
Mr Davis cannot understand or does not want to understand? The foot club are flunkies.
Podiatry eyes.
At the PA school Jim DPwtf sat at orientation, chin up, dressed in full pody, pinky ring shining, sat there looking down at the other PA’s to be, sizing them up for potential marks…uh, patients. The instructor introduced herself and asked: “Can any of you tell us what happens what the HPA axis is? The wtf stood up, straightened his tie, cleared his throat and said, “Sure, it’s when you get shit from the feds and need a high power attorney.” The other students were whispering in hushed tones when the instructor interrupted. “No, you stinking moron. He was duly… Read more »
“P.A.’s to be”. (E) That’s the status of the podiatric “doctorate”! (and, the dummkopf’s still support the APMA and subscribe to Barry Block’s shoe picture news) Ya know? I’m not sure if most pods would have the grades to get accepted into a P.A. program. Oh, “but we know biomechanics”!
Maybe Robert did not notice. Or did not care. Notice the name plate Dr. Wenstrup. Another case of call me doctor I ain’t no podiatrist. I suppose he’s not very proud of his trinity suffix huh ? Yeah, he’s done a lot for podiatry. Another phony piece of shit, one step above loser Rogers.
Oh, I care. But you’re right about noticing. Podiatrists lie and mislead with the “dr” title so often that even I took it for granted. The PODIATRY SCAM IS SO SOPHISTICATED IN PSY-OPS that even those of us aware of the con miss it. PODIATRISTS MOSTLY HIDE AND DENY WHAT THEY ARE. THEY LIE WHEN THEY SAY THAT THEY’RE PROUD BECAUSE LIFERS ARE QUICK TO EUPHEMIZE THEIR “TITLE”. Isn’t it the “lifers” who tell us how they’re ‘just like’, they took the “SAME” first 2 years, they do 3 years like DOCTORS do, they know the secret magic pseudoscience of… Read more »
dp wtf.
I heard today was match day for many physicians. Many got matches. However there were 2 older experienced physicians that did not get matched. One of them I met and they are more than qualified and experienced, published many articles, yet they are not as young as the recent graduates. My guess is if one does not get matched their chances of getting matched go down. For a physician, a match is a ticket to obtaining a license to practice medicine in the U.S. My opinion is that this is a similar problem in podiatry, there also is the problem… Read more »
99.9% of MEDICAL SCHOOL graduates DO GET MATCHED DAN. You’re observations are WRONG AGAIN. Your STORY of older MD’s not getting matched is UNBELIEVABLE. Perhaps YOU’RE MISTAKING a match to go into a DIFFERENT PROGRAM from where they were. That’s typical and understandable but literally NO U.S. REAL MEDICAL SCHOOL GRADUATE DOESN’T GET SOME TYPE OF PROGRAM. VERY UNLIKE PODIATRY. Of course YOU ARE ALSO WRONG in claiming MD’s fail get a program because of AGE. MD’S aren’t stupid like podiatrists are . They have the intellectual reserve to KNOW THEY COULD SUE FOR AGE DISCRIMINATION and I doubt if… Read more »
The only question is: Does carpetbagger Lee have podiatry eyes?
Block is really laughing at you stupid podiatrists that remain subscribed to PM News. He throws a FURY SHOE at the profession while he deposits advertiser’s checks in HIS ACCOUNT…AND YOU HAVEN’T UNSUBSCRIBED YET? Approx. slightly less than half the field feels the need to add a P.A. certificate to BOLSTER UP THE WEAK INCREASINGLY USELESS dpm certificate. And, this survey was done in a PREJUDICED SAMPLE GROUP OF LIFERS WHO REMAIN SUBSCRIBED TO THE SHOE PERVERT NEWS. Take that survey in The Podiatry Post and compare. Podiatrist Tomczak with an UNLICENSED md (who seems to be following in a… Read more »
Kasecon was a clown. Shysters incorporated. Lifer centrale
Yes, good Men would despise current podiatry. Scum of the Earth make excuses for it and or justify it
…K was arrogant and disrespectful to his patients time and would COME IN LATE MAKING THEM WAIT A LONG TIME. THE PATIENTS WERE MAD. But “his smile” would change that. Sounds like a consummate con man…
Bc he’s was cunning. The pathognomonic Shyster smile was and is well documented.
Let’s produce a picture of a podiatrist. CUNNING, Podiatry Eyes, Shyster smile. I think I’ll make a Mr. Potato head for podiatrists. Add the eyes & smile to mimic your favorite lifer.
Lol!
That Malta picture in the psy op magazine is a double middle finger to the ~40% of honest pods.
Think about all the planning and trickery these guys do to concoct ANOTHER BOARD RACKET (this time international BUSINESS). If they used some of this effort into learning medicine we wouldn’t be trying to be as good as a P.A.. Think about what a laugh it is to the P.A.’s. Those fake foot “drs” want to be as good as us…and they call themselves “dr”. Maybe I won’t give the next one permission to cut toenails. YOU FAILED AGAIN APMA! WE’VE FALLEN BEHIND P.A.’s! Not one cent. Not one cent to those dirty crooks in the APMA or quack colleges.… Read more »
Many will likely still give to that impotent club. They never learn. Learning is too difficult for them. They will be fed more empty promises, someday Pep talks, and just around the corner delusions.
Well, yeah, but “we know biomechquactics”.
40 percent honest of podiatrists ?!! Way less sorry
Agree Sybly—was using Roberts approximate as I respect the gentleman. Would state it’s likely far lower than 40% (honest/moral dp wtfs)
This story tells you exactly what podiatry is all about. Silly nonsense. Wasting money. That is the money of the APMA dues paying members. Thanks for exposing this Seth.
Gassworth made @500k per annum plus first class flights over 3h and spouse too.
PODIATRIC POLITICIANS ARE DIRTY CROOKS AND ARE HURTING THIS FIELD.
Gilbert Gottfried lookalike with that weird frozen smile. Circus caller
A few posts back was the question: Podiatrist vs. Orthopedic Surgeon. In the world outside the podmosphere educated adults often select an ORS because podiatrists have been, currently are, considered less than orthopedists. Grown ups of means are not easily prey to the questionable alphabet behind the DPM. NOPE. The adult, educated patient KNOWS the difference and acts accordingly. But, over down in Yeehawville, slick pods can explain that DPM is just another way to seell MD and that DOs are more like chiropractors. A huge percentage of the population ARE aware–through the internet, kids they went to school with,… Read more »
Thank the foot clubs—hustlers and hucksters. USers strongly prefer being lied to (commission and omission) than hearing the truth.
Foot Clubs, Foot CULTS. You don’t find those in M.D. orthopedics.
Yes, lies are very important for those intent on ‘living’ there.
Let’s be honest; as mastibatory Toobin stated: podiatry is 3 steps below dentistry.
Most dp wtfs are there bc they got rejected from real med school. F troop, bad news beats, Daniel types and co. Clowns
That hurts, “SILLY SHOES”…..because it’s TRUE. It’s the embarrassment I, and many other “good” podiatrists, have had to accept and live with. It hurts, but WE don’t add to it by LYING TO OURSELVES OR OTHERS.
That would BE A GREATER PERSONAL ABANDONMENT.
See? A SICK ( unhealed from PTSD) podiatrist doesn’t abide that WE have accepted what we are. He wants the DELUSION to continue. The hurt makes him angry. He needs considerable psychological therapy. For now let him think his neg vote actually makes his delusion real. He may harm himself otherwise. The podiatry profession scam has damaged a lot of psyches.
The ‘down vote’ helps mask truths and realities. Their ‘life’ was a scam, a lie, and a bad joke. They likely know it on some level—-but hide it by down clicking and pretending they’re something they’re not. To confront truth is to confront pain. Hence, delusions, mythologies, and illusions are very impt to dp wtfs.
Many Dp wtfs need extensive psychological therapy with qualified personnel.
Maybe “Hugh’s” brother (an M.D. PSYCHIATRIST) can give the “lifers” a discount. He’d have thousands of patients from the podiatry pool.
Poorfession exists as a 3rd chance for real doc school rejects and to sell elective swill to low income, and or low information persons ; remember, ya only have 26cm to fuck with
7 YEARS for 26 cm. Wow, such a deal that podiatry business!
What?! Are you one of the 35 who can do an extra 12cm and touch the sacred ankle? Ok, so, 38cm for 7 years. 5 1/2 cm./year! That’s slower than a slug! “We’re working hard though”.
Didn’t earl horowiz boots market a board certification club? They had a banner and desk at pod meetings to sell memberships like a time scam condo
At 87 years old he was still podiatry working. Crashed his car (and subsequently died) coming back home from sales work
Like Covid, the dpm is spreading throughout the world killing millions…. with false hope.
And propaganda- psy ops to redistribute wealth.
Can you imagine MD’s, DO’s or DD’S wanting (needing) to add P.A. or Dental Hygiene certificates? No? Why? Oh, they have REAL RECOGNIZED DOCTORATES. Let me type in dpm. Ooops! there’s that red underline saying wtf is that jumble of letters? dpm: THE UNKNOWN, UNRECOGNIZED, P.A. WANNNABEE. Oh, but we know biomechquactics!
Danny boy and co seem to enjoy the smell and taste of feces.
All this paid for travel to do what precisely?
Nothing except expand their bank accounts and travel the world paid by others. Nice.
Garafoolish impish grin and podiatry eyes too. Former Californian rodgers – what a cuck.
What a con. Anyone with an IQ > 70 cannot say podiatry with a straight face.
I like strawberry malt
Rodgers Malt—2 cups of fake sweetener, sour milk, rotten lemons, millennial beard trimmings, off tasting ice cubes—mix in an overly articulate, pc scripted off brand blender—-

mr chasskkins— any comments since you support your oppressors?
Podiatrick Stockholm syndrome (pss)
Chasskins will likely down vote truth. They’re contaminated.
A “Lifer’s” negative vote is analogous to putting your hands over your eyes and ears thinking that makes the boogey man go away. Sorry Lifers, the boogey man (the truth to you) is immortal. You’ll ALWAYS LOSE TO THE TRUTH. SOONER OR LATER IT ALWAYS PREVAILS.
They’re contaminated persons. In other words, beyond repair, f ups, brain washed. Daniel , any input besides a down vote? Maybe write into Barry’s propaganda mag for stress…relief?
