Podatry around the world

In the United States, Podiatry is studied at the graduate level with an undergraduate degree needed for entry o the podiatric medical degree. The podiatric medical degree is four years and most will do a three year residency after that. Podiatric physicians in the USA have full medical and surgical scope for the treatment of the foot and related problems. In the United Kingdom podiatry is practiced very differently. The podiatry course is only a 3-4 year undergraduate degree but includes no surgical training like in the USA. After graduating most begin working as a registered and licensed podiatrist. They then can enrol in the surgery training programs. The situation in Australia for podiatry is similar to the UK.
