I'm currently a podiatry student and would like to assist marginalized communities in the future locally or globally!

I have been really getting into Podology as a whole and I am curious on the actually steps to become a CCPMA. What courses should I go after? Would I need an Associates or Bachelors in Medical Assisting? I was looking at the American College of Medical Foot Care and Esthetics as they have a Medical Nail Technician and Medical Advanced Nail Tech course that can lead into to Foot Care Nursing or CCPMA, but you have to be a Nurse first. Would a Medical Assistant certification work or would I need an actually LPN/RN for the later FCN or CCPMA? That’s where I start to get confused. Another place N ..read more

Hey y'all, this title might be a little intense but I wanted to know why other medical pathways like ortho or MD dislike podiatrists so much. From what I've read, they don't consider podiatrists as "real doctors" but I'm not really sure why that is. I mean, the degree is literally called "Doctor of Podiatric Medicine." Yes, the average income may potentially be lower than people who go the MD or DO route, but I feel like this pathway is what you make of it.

Hi guys, I need some help please; so I have interviews coming up, and I want to prepare for in case I get the "why is your MCAT score low?" question. I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses, but the only reason I could give for this is that I had a health condition that I wasn't receiving proper care for at the time I took the MCAT. I couldn't sit for more than 15 minutes in the same position, so while I was studying, I moved around/shifted my position, but MCAT day was different since you can't really do that. If I say this, would it sound like I'm making excuses? submitted by /u/_Hig ..read more
