Having read many of your comments and your request I wanted to share with you my journey and what it is I do. This is how it began! Podiatry is a wonderful line of work. So I'll be interested in any questions you may have. Would you be a podiatrist?

Thank you , I am in my final year. I can't believe its been three years since I watched your video and and encouraged me to pursue podiatry. I haven't looked back at all and each day I love meeting new patients at the placement and serving them.

dang. you just seem like such a genuine person, even through these videos I can tell that your demeanour is how you are in day-to-day and thats so refreshing! wish visiting MDs in the United States didnt feel like youre just another box being checked off the list. I always find myself curious as to why certain specialties speak to people when they find them in the medical field. thanks for sharing your story with us. :)

On occasion I watch your channel. It's interesting the dialogue between you and your patients, at least I think so. Such a cheery personality. Perhaps what I find strangely alluring is your voice and gentle nature. Being from the USA I understand your speech well, but I it's quite pleasurable listening to your accent and how you project it. I see others as well have mentioned your voice. I like it when you say, "corn free". Not trying to be "corny" either.

Hello, I am currently working towards my foot care/podiatry assistant qualification and hope to continue on to becoming a full podiatrist. I am 31 this year and have two babies (2 year old and a 1 year old) I am worried about the full time aspect of the university course as I do work currently as well as a crazy family life but I hope to qualify in the next 5/6 years :) thank you for all your videos Jamie

I personally think a lot of people are averse to feet because they think they're smelly and ugly. This is not always so, but is fairly common in the USA. They seem to have the same opinion regarding pedicurists. I love watching corn and callus procedures because I love medical videos and am also diabetic. It's informative and entertaining as well. Keep those videos coming.

If yes do I have to restart my leaning process from the beginning ? If you know any helpful information I'd be so grateful 🙏

Hello doctor, need a help. I have been having tingling in between first and second toes of left foot for about 4months. I feel it as a type of hyper sensitivity and it reaches the top of the foot & lower leg. I have consulted neurologist and they did tests including mri of head, neck, spine. Also emg&nerve conduction studies. Couldn’t find anything. I’m recently feeling pain in left knee left side nerve when pressing and this reaches the foot as well. Also I have pain in left buttock. Could you please advise.
@soomascorner

I’m really interested in studying podiatry because I have slight leg length discrepancy, flat foot and a bunion of my big toe and have suffered the issues that have come with it all my life. This has made me more interested in studying it. Butttt...the only thing is I am really squeamish when it comes to nails, broken nails, ingrowing nails etc. so should I not go into it as I am aware this is a daily of a podiatrists job. Or can something like this be grown out of.

@TheAgeofFabulous

I find feet utterly fascinating and what you do is great! Can you do any surgical procedures? In the US our podiatrists are MDs so they have to go through medical school and specialize podiatry.
@SagarSingh-en6sq
@SagarSingh-en6sq 6 лет назад
That's not true, med school and pod school are 2 totally different institutions. Medical students earn either an MD or DO degree and then can go on to become orthopedic surgeons (if they match into these residencies that is) where they may specialize in the foot and ankle or whatever. On the contrary, podiatry students earn a DPM degree and are titled podiatrists.
@TheAgeofFabulous
@TheAgeofFabulous 6 лет назад
Sagar Singh Apologies, I definitely acknowledge DOs. As for DPMs, I wasn’t aware of those in the US because I had never been to one. Interesting. Thank you for the information!

The Age of Fabulous A Podiatrist can in fact specialize in surgery in the US. My brother is currently in podiatry school and he is shadowing a podiatrist who is specialized in forefoot reconstruction surgery. It’s a sub specialty on top of an already specialized field.
@TheFootScraperDGPodiatrist
@TheFootScraperDGPodiatrist 5 лет назад
Here in the UK you have the option yo continue to become an podiatric surgeon but it is not mandatory. As a podiatrist I can perform nail surgery.

I’m very interested in podiatry, but a few things worry me... do you feel that there are enough patients and people that know of the field, and do you feel the compensation is good?
@nathanlesueur1544
@nathanlesueur1544 6 лет назад
I think it's different in each location, I was just at a Podiatric conference in Columbus Ohio (USA) a few weeks ago and I was worried about the same things, but all of the podiatrist there made it sound like the patient population was plenty to fill their schedules, the hardest part was just time management of each patient. And the 3 podiatrists I shadowed all made well over 250k a year with their own practices (this is all in the US, I'm not sure where you are from). These are just my experiences, but cool to hear you are interested in Podiatry!
@TheFootScraperDGPodiatrist

@adanne-vx2yn 5 лет назад
Nathan LeSueur Hey there, I just wanted to say that I really appreciated your comment. I am interested in applying to a few Podiatric medical schools for the current cycle. However, I was curious about compensation/pay because I couldn’t really find a lot of information about it. I find podiatry really interesting because it could give me the flexibility to be a surgeon and still see patients and have the possibility of owning a clinic too! Idk I just really like the options and sub specialties podiatry has to offer

Hi Doc! I'm in the U.S. so I don't know if things are different or not, but do podiatrists also diagnose and treat ankle pain? I have foot and ankle pain on my left side only. You mentioned insoles, but my problem seems to be with my ankle and walking on my left foot. I'm not sure what kind of doctor to talk to ☹

Hi! I’ve been wanting to do Podiatry for about 8 years! I have children and just been approved as a foster carer too. However, I have just started an access to higher education to hopefully start a Podiatry Degree in 2022. Please can you give me any advice that you think would be beneficial for me to be selected for the course? Also what do you feel are the challenges or negatives of Podiatry. Thank you :)
@TheFootScraperDGPodiatrist
@TheFootScraperDGPodiatrist 3 года назад
Hi there firstly good luck and the best for your studies. Really explore podiatry and find which part of it you enjoy most. Listen to your clients and remember posture is important during treatment.
