It’s time to start planning for the 2018 Internships programs now.  Students should review the requirements for an Internship Program to make certain they meet the minimum criteria to apply.  They can also discover which program might offer them the best location, dates and length of programming.   Click early, as deadlines are rapidly approaching for the winter programs.

Why consider a career in podiatric medicine?



  *   A Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) is a specialist in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of lower extremity disorders, diseases and injuries.

  *   DPMs can specialize in a variety of areas such as surgery, orthopedics, or public health. Besides these certified specialties, podiatrists may practice a subspecialty such as sports medicine, pediatrics, dermatology, radiology, geriatrics, or diabetic foot care.

  *   The DPM is a vital member of the health-care team. He or she is often the first to detect symptoms of diabetes or peripheral vascular disease because of the human foot’s interrelation with the rest of the body.
