Podiatrists

Experience, Skills, and Personality Traits

Podiatrists gain experience through residency training, which provides a combination of medical and surgical experiences.

The podiatrist must have a capacity to understand and apply scientific findings, the skill to manipulate delicate instruments, and, for those with their own practices, good business skills. Most importantly, they should like all kinds of people and have a sincere desire to help those needing care and attention.
