The Origin: Story Goals Team Mission
The Podiatrist2Be Team was founded by a student inspired to fill the gap in information about externships in podiatry. The best advice was always “ask an upperclassman”. This was frustrating so we began working on the website as a solution to the world of externships doing just that. With peer review ratings you are able to better differentiate one program from the next. Your interest may lie in academia, wound care, rearfoot/forefoot mastery, hands-on/ hands-off training, private/group practice, or eventually leading onto fellowship but what GOOD is that without knowing which program may offer this to you? It is paramount to visit programs that best fit your desire; however you are limited with time, resource, and opportunity?!? Getting the MOST information prior to selecting ones externships is crucial.
Enter Podiatrist2Be
The aforementioned is the SOLUTION to the problems: the need for information, transparency, and genuine insights into ALL podiatric programs. We envisioned a platform where students, residents, and even program directors could openly share their experiences, thus creating a rich repository of firsthand information.
