Podiatry School

So my plan as of the last 2 years has been to go to dental school.  Those plans have changed just a little bit during the last two weeks.  I have recently learned about the podiatry profession.  I have been to the podiatrist before but I had not even thought about what it took to be a podiatrist.  So now six more applications are in for podiatry school.  This is on top of the 19 applications I have submitted for dental school.  That is a lot of applications.  I have shadowed a podiatrist and I totally loved it.  I watched some videos of podiatric surgeries on youtube and was freaked out at first.  After the initial shock of the blood and stuff it wasn't too bad, then it became very interesting.  This is turning out to be an exciting time.  Dental school still may or may not work out, but I think if I got into both dental school and podiatric school I would choose podiatry school.  This came as quite a shock to me but I think I like podiatry way more than dentistry.  In the end both careers will allow me to provide for my family well, and will allow me to be a big part of my kids’ lives.
