Ah, the secret to success being a “sports med” podiatrist. Nothing like cutting on juiced up patients who could’ve healed their lateral ankle injury without surgery

Meanwhile, I have a Medicare patient who needs a toe amputation. It was scheduled for Monday. Cardiology said the patient was moderate risk - patient said they were healthy as a horse and don't know what's going on. Which is what every patient with a heart condition says. Anesthesia demands that we acquire the records even though in prior cases they did the leg work if the cardiology clearance came in different. Clear stress test, but some sort of left ventricular outflow obstruction - so anesthesia denied it claiming it needs monitoring at a hospital.

Just do it under local. Their cardiac history is then irrelevant (from an anesthesia standpoint).

...I have a Medicare patient who needs a toe amputation. It was scheduled for Monday. Cardiology said the patient was moderate risk ... ...I've had like 8 conversations to make a $190 amputation happen at a hospital.

Yeah, I was going to say same.
But it's da meme thread.

I do toe amps in office for dialysis, sick AF, cardiac, etc pts often. OR is my pref, but if they need it asap (draining osteo or worse) or if their clearance would take too long or bounce, then... just doooo it.

I used to do them in office but then I had a patient who was having an elective bunion surgery under local who freaked out and ran around like a lab monkey so now I do all of my ingrown toenails under general anesthesia…

How? Do you have an office suite? Or do you just numb it up, chop, suture, the end

I don't think you get how it works...

• If people pass ABFAS, then they just put Joe Pro, DPM, FACFAS.

(some might do DABFAS instead, but that'd be <10%... most use FACFAS)

• If they can't pass ABFAS, they put all the nonsense... Joe Blow, DPM, DABPM, FACPM, XYZ, ABC, CWS, GlassDoor, BS, etc to throw a smokescreen.

...yeah, it's basically that simple. 🙂

My favorite is DPM FACFAS MS. Or DPM MS.... Dude you are a doctor . The Masters that you wasted a year on trying to get into real medical school doesn't matter, you didn't get in and instead went to podiatry school.

It’s still an advanced degree. MS, PhD, DPM, MD, DO etc plus board credentials are all reasonable to have after name


Bad perspective

Typical DPM needs to study his shoes better. Glycerin are neutral cushioning shoes. She should get Adrenaline or Ariel.

Sir, I'm not sure if a non-podiatrist can win Meme of the Year... but this one is pretty damn good. I'm on board.

I wasn’t sure the reference would come through.

Glad you folks let me participate, the eye board is slow and has no sense of humor.

So good.

Podiatrists are like pennies; costs more to make 'em than they're worth.

I was told this needed to be memorialized in meme form.
