  3. Well done Megan I am also South African but based in the UK. I am running workshops in CT for people in the community to do basic foot care and we have opened our first clinic which has 6 workstations. Did you know that there 169000 amputations done last year. Our vision is to train people in the community and open clinics in strategic places so that we can hopefully minimize amputations and salvage limbs.
    It is an exciting profession
