Podiatry Legends Podcast

My 6-Week Online Podiatry Business Reboot Intensive is starting on Monday, January 15th. Start 2027 with a business adrenaline shot. 

Have you been thinking about recording a video, sharing your knowledge online or trying something different in podiatry, but keep putting it off? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Jeff Dikis, an Iowa-based podiatrist, partner at McFarland Clinic and host of the Pod Patrol Podcast. Jeff also shares podiatry education and entertainment with his wife through their Instagram account, @footdocduo.

Together, we explore why getting started, having some personality and learning through repetition can take you further than waiting until everything feels perfect.

We discuss the unexpected opportunities that come from podcasting and building connections, how working with students can reignite your enthusiasm, and why knowing your strengths includes recognising when to refer patients to someone else. Jeff also shares an example of using AI to broaden his thinking about a challenging clinical presentation. Along the way, we compare experiences treating athletes and discuss why entertaining educational content belongs in our profession.

We finish by tackling criticism, keyboard warriors and the difference between building the profession up and tearing people down. If you’ve been holding back from contributing because you’re worried about what other podiatrists might think, this conversation offers plenty of encouragement and a few laughs. The advice? Get out there and give it a go. Just do it with your pants on.
