What impressed you positively?

"The admin/faculty is an all-star cast of podiatrists and they seem to care a lot about training future podiatrists.

What are your general comments?

"Overall it's going to be a great program. If you are from California and want to stay there for residency and to practice (at least So Cal) then GO to Western.
