thats funnyby A.A.D. (no login)Funny you should mention kids following in their parents footsteps. On my 4th year rotations this year I ran across several programs that already had some spots filled by children of the attending podiatrists. So that arguement that podiatrists wouldnt want their kids to follow in their footsteps just doesnt hold water. 2 programs I spent a month at (out of 5) had spots promised to kids of the attendings, plus the private practice rotation I had in my hometown had a doc whose kids was finishing residency this year and he was coming back to work with his dad. So its kinda funny how you are supposedly out there and know many docs and dont know any whose kids are also becoming podiatrists. Yet I am just an optimistic 4th year student that has yet to experience the real world and I know more podiatrists children following in their parents footsteps than you do.
