PM News just scours the internet for podiatry social media or newspaper stories... they change the text or take quotes to make them "their" news pieces. That is why it's such a joke. I would venture to bet less than 5% of the DPMs and people 'featured' in PM News wanted to be - or even know...

Yeah, but there are over a million MD/DO in the USA... vs roughly 20k podiatrists. The giant MD/DO group will have more news headlines (tik tok plastic surgeon, ortho roofie-ing ppl on the weekends, etc), but in terms of commonality and rate, I would bet dollars to doughnuts that podiatry does...

It happens in all specialties, but I think the incidence is a lot higher in podiatry than MD/DO for fraud. It is a product of saturation and DPMs having fewer patients/demand and fewer hospital or high base income jobs. MDs just have many more legit ways to be busy and to make a pretty good...

Yeah, it's really the way it should be. The way it could be... and how it actually was for quite awhile. I just had a tech at the hospital give me a thank-you card and gift card today at lunch (I had done curbside and sent him in Rx last month, no formal appt or visit, no expectation of...

You can also just get 5FU powder mixed into sali acid cream from the compound pharma if you have any say in the ordering/supplies. It costs maybe 10 or 20% more but not too significant and saves ppl a lot of expense and time picking up at pharmacy. Is there any EBM on the zinc PO? I only do...

I vote for same as above... download your file ABFAS log on podiatricsurgery.net in Excel file format... you can sort by date, proc, pt, etc based on what you need. If you do PDF form, it turns out clunky and kinda random order. It's a good log system overall, though... beats the heck out of...

Yeah, he is no longer on their faculty directory and all links "Welcome From the Dean" and others are dead. What a confidence boost for the inaugural LECOM podiatry students who just started a year ago. I wonder how they are spinning it to them. ...Perhaps he has realized that accepting...

I'm not sure. The medical industry is largely a scam, yes... tons of unnecessary testing, billing, services. However, I'm not sure on that meaning we all need to game the system as hard as we can. I personally wish I had been a doc back in the day where people just paid what they can...

Concur... you guys worry way too much. ABFAS exams (because they're fairly hard) and pt1 APMLE (because some schools haven't flunked out laggard students yet) are the only exams in podiatry that are potential trip points and appreciable % fail. Pt2, pt3, ABPM are joke exams. Anyone who fails...

When you fail APMLE pt 3: .
