A
candidate for admission to one of seven US podiatry schools must have
the following prerequisites; successfully completed a baccalareate degree,
complete the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) applications and
interviews. The course of instruction leading to the DPM degree is four
years in length. The first two years are devoted largely to didactic
instruction and laboratory work in the basic medical sciences, including
anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, histology, neuroanatomy,
embryology, microbiology, pathology, immunology and more. During the
second & third years, students concentrate on courses in the clinical
sciences, gaining experience in the college clinics, community clinics
and accredited hospitals. Clinical courses include general diagnosis
(history taking, physical examination, clinical laboratory procedures
and diagnostic radiology/imaging), therapeutics (pharmacology, physical
medicine, prosthetics/orthotics), surgery, anesthesia and operative
podiatric medicine. After completion of the DPM degree, graduates must
pass Podiatric Medical board examinations in order to qualify in taking
individual state/provincial licencing exams. Postgraduate experience
is realized by completing a 1-4 year surgical residency program, available
in Canada & the US.
