    Oh for goodness sake!!

    Podiatric Surgeons in the UK go to a good deal of trouble to emphasise their non medic status. In my experience this is both written information and verbal advice.

    Quite what the BOA/BMA hope to achieve by releasing such blatantly erroneous messages to the press is beyond me.:bang:
