Confessions Of A Not So Avid Football Fan
04/03/2006
I have never been much of a fan of American football. This is partly due to a trauma related to the game early in my life. My father took me to a University of Montana Grizzly game when I was 5 years old. Naturally, we sat in the cheap seats,...

Why Orthopedic Denigrators Of DPMs Just Make Themselves Look Bad
04/25/2011
A couple of months ago, I learned about that orthopod from South Carolina and his video blog that slammed our profession. I watched the thing and it reminded me of the horse poop we had to put up with 30 years ago. My wife leaned into my den...

Thinking Twice About Revenue Enhancement Opportunities

Revenue enhancement was a popular theme in the exhibit hall at the APMA national meeting last August. Every other booth seemed to offer an enhancement gimmick. These exhibits were popular, especially with the younger doctors. This brought to...

Learning From Heroes Within And Outside Podiatry
06/03/2007
Some of the real heroes in podiatry are not DPMs. I learned to think of podiatry as an isolated body during my Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine days. We learned the only thing we had to fear was fear itself and orthopods.

How We Can Adapt To The Inherent Challenges In Healthcare Reform
05/23/2013
The Apollo 13 crew detected a problem, acknowledged their peril, adapted, changed and survived. We are traveling in the spaceship called medical care and we have a problem.

Flying High In The Face Of Disaster
01/03/2002
Like many growing up during the Cold War in the ‘50s and ‘60s, I was tired of always preparing for a disaster. During air raid drills at school, a bell rang and we would “duck and cover.” That meant crawling under your flimsy wooden desk and...

Breaking Bread And Forgetting Podiatry
04/03/2005
   I don’t think about podiatry much on the weekends. My mind goes to another place, namely my kitchen. My wife and I built a new home 13 years ago and the kitchen is the center of our existence. We made it large enough to accommodate our...

Going The Extra Mile For Extra Patients
08/03/2008
     While the majority of my podiatry practice occurs in my clinic between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., there are activities I call extras. These are professional services that occur after hours, on weekends or sometimes in conflict with the office...

When A `Foot Doctor` Teaches A Lesson In Humility
05/03/2006
I used to be humble about podiatry in the company of MDs and DOs. It seemed a necessary part of survival in the medical community. However, this humility has dissolved in recent years. When it comes to medical and surgical care of feet and...
