Hi, my name is Dina and I have been interested in podiatry so I decided to shadow a podiatrist in clinic and in surgery to see what I would be getting myself into. I have seen many cases in her clinic from fungal toe infections, calluses, warts, post-surgery check, bunions, plantar fasciitis, etc...

I was okay with everything except....toenail removal surgery. I never had problems with blood or opening things open, however, there was something today about dealing with the toes and nails that really made my stomach very upset. Thankfully, I didn't pass out and I kept a smile the whole time. BUT, I kept wondering... Would I be able to get over this? Would I be able to do the same procedure without feeling so grossed out?
To all the experienced podiatrists, please tell me what your first experience was like and if what I am feeling is normal? would I be able to handle this in the future after training or would I also remain grossed out. I tried to look at lots of pictures after and even viewed a video online of the same procedure to get my eyes and brain used to it...but it still makes me sick. Please HELP!
