    DPM to DO?

    Yes I was. I hate to say it, but the Gov't is fine dishing out loans (at an absurd interest rate) because they know those of us in the health professions are the most likely to repay them. I will say the repayment programs continually get better. Even if you can't do PSLF (not easy with podiatry...

    DPM to DO?

    We did indeed.. I remember you. I do hold a podiatry license and have been approached to do outpatient work but honestly, it just never made sense to do it. I am at the top of the food chain with what I do, and I still get to do lower extremity surgery almost every day - I do the endoscopic vein...

    DPM to DO?

    I'm surprised as an admin you would not believe my post just because I haven't been here in a few years. It's not like I just joined SDN, been here 15 years.

    DPM to DO?

    So I haven't been on here since 2020. Big deal. I don't troll SDN. I just come on every so often to check a post I started in another forum that has been in existence for probably 10 years now and has millions of responses. Yes, I went to podiatry residency at a VA. The off rotations were...

    DPM to DO?

    I applied and got accepted to DO school at the same time I matched into residency. I ended up going to a horrible, toxic residency and leaving after 1.5 years. I went straight to PA school and can easily make 250k+ in my specialty (cardiothoracic surgery). Yes, I incurred more debt and lost...

    I just check in every few years or so to see if this thread is still alive and kicking. Glad my *rant* from 10 years ago has allowed others to blow off steam as well, because good grief we all can use it these days!! Love seeing some old 'faces' here :) Carry on and RANT away... Cheers, E

I have an amazingly awesome 11 yr old spoiled rotten Yorkie who is my best bud and may need some assistance while I'm...

    RANT HERE thread

    Annoyed beyond words that interest rates for professional medical/vet student loans are INSANE! Why are we charged almost DOUBLE of what you can get a mortgage for these days? Where is the sensibility in this? You have vets/doctors taking at least 4 years extra out of our lives in order to save...

    Lymphapress causing toe ulcer?

    I have prescribed Lymphapress for many many patients and have only had positive results. Just as an FYI, there are separate foot pieces that can be ordered. Not sure if your patient was using those or not?
