What are the subspecialties for podiatry?

 

[smartman716]

The ones that I can think of:

- Primary podiatric medicine
- Foot and ankle surgery or Podiatric surgery
- Podopediatrics
- Podiatric orthopedics
- Podiatric sports medicine

I'll leave the rest for the seniors and docs...

Thanks 🙂 Is it possible to have more than one subspecialty?

 

[smartman716]

Yes.

Cool. Do you choose/learn your subspecialties during fellowships?

Others subspecialties that are typically limited to academicians include podiatric:

• dermatology,
• dermatopathology,
• neurology,
• radiology,
• rheumatology,
• infectious disease, and
• peripheral vascular disease.

That is generally the case.
