I was wondering if there were any podiatrists or know anything about podiatry in the Army/AF/Navy. Any comments are welcome, thanks.

There may be a few in the USAF, but I think they are mostly contracted out.

Just finished an anesthesia rotation at NNMC - at least a couple of podiatrists there - we were running the drugs for them! (Nice people!).

There's a really nice AF Podiatrist at Wright-Patterson. He has a VERY cush life from what I've seen...

Yes!! There is actually a podiatry residency at Eisenhower in Augusta, GA. I also think there is one at Madigan in Tacoma, WA, but not sure, but yes, definite residency training at Esienhower. I believe it is a surgical podiatry program. Also, ask a healthcare recruiter, I am sure that you can get HPSP for podiatry if there is a residency program.

Wilford Hall has its own Podiatry Clinic separate from ortho.
