you have got to be kidding meby Anonymous (no login)Most family practice doctors do more surgical rotations than a dpm's will ever do their entire residency. I am not slamming dpm's, but I do want to make the point if you seriously think that FP's don't understand surgery you are sadly mistaken. FP's in fact probably do more surgeries than dpm's be that it may be vasectomies etc, they are well aware of the surgical skills needed. Again, this is nothing against podiatry, just the few that make comments suck as this or the ones that claim that they are better trained than any orthopod. Claims such as these are destroying the already ailing profession of podiatry. Be wise, you never know who will coincidently be reading this forum. It sounds as if podiatry in a whole needs the referrals of orthopods and primary care professionals alike. from IP address 64.28.48.168 Goto Forum Home |
