Hey guys, so I'm applying to podiatry school this summer and I'm extremely excited about starting this new chapter. It has been my dream to become a podiatrist ever since I was introduced to the profession a few years back. That being said, I have a question for current podiatrists and residents. Do those that have attended the schools that take classes alongside the DO students (like DMU, AZPOD, Western) have more credibility with DOs and MDs than the students who attend the schools that are strictly podiatry? My dream would one day be able to work with an orthopedic group and this has been a question that I have had from the beginning. Every podiatrist that I have shadowed attended DMU. I'm applying to 5 different podiatry schools and my fear is that if I don't attend one that has the combined classes with DO students that I could loose credibility and opportunities to work alongside DOs and MDs. Thanks guys!
