A Career in Podiatric Medicine: A Step in the Right Direction (Choosing Podiatry as Your Career) by David Tollafield is primarily based on the UK context. It is a very helpful guide for anyone considering a career in podiatry in the United Kingdom.
This book is an ideal introduction to podiatry, guided by the people who practice it. Reading about a profession through the varied accounts of its practitioners – from student podiatrists and practicing clinicians to educators and researchers – gives the text an authentic and insightful edge. It provides an honest and wide-ranging portrayal of each of the facets of the profession, illustrating its real contribution to healthcare. Few texts offer such an accessible picture of contemporary podiatry. Written in a relaxed style, it provides the newcomer with a clear sense of the profession, and how it makes a difference. For anyone considering a career in podiatry, this book is for you – it addresses the cutting-edge specialisms, including burgeoning fields of practice supported by novel technological advances, as well as its long-established methods of care. Its contributors imbue their accounts with the enthusiasm of committed professionals, matched with a keen sense of realism. An acute shortage of qualified podiatrists means there are huge opportunities for those joining it today. This engaging and informative book is a unique and essential guide to a career in podiatry, one likely to inspire a new generation of practitioners.
