Wow my training was so advance I do laser surgery with my eyes while floating in space in a surgical center in a satellite
Same story can happen to any podiatrist in the USA
There are bad and irresponsible podiatrist with 3 year surgical training
The problem is not the training is the decision making, to do the good thing or the irresponsible thing

I fail to see how this looks bad for our profession while it is in another country with completely different training standards. Training here in the USA is often regarded as superior that that found in Australia. Also I hate to break it to you but there are physicians in every medical specialty that have poor decision making, it is not exclusive to podiatry.

Such cases exist in every medical specialty. What point are you trying to make against podiatry, specifically, with this information?

Come on guys... We all (at least anyone who has been on here awhile) know who "podiatry surgery" is. He pops in from time to time to ruffle our feathers. He has about 10 different names but it's easy to pick out the writing style/negativity.

Kinda entertaining if you ask me. It gets slow around here at times...
