New York College of Podiatric Medicine Open House

Do you know what podiatric medicine is?
Podiatric medicine is the highly specialized branch of medicine dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases, and disorders affecting the foot, ankle, and lower extremities. 
Have you considered a career in podiatric medicine?
Doctors of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) treat all conditions located in the lower extremity, with subspecialties in sports medicine, surgery, diabetic wound care, dermatology, podopediatrics, and orthopedics. They work in a variety of settings including private practices, clinics, hospitals, and educational environments.  DPMs are the only doctors to receive specialized medical and surgical training and board certification in the care of the lower extremity.

  1. My brother has been wanting to go into the medical field for some time. I know he has shown interest in possibly studying podiatric medicine as a career path. It would be cool if we could find an open house like this for him to go to. I think it would be a good experience for him.
