Pediatrics at World Congress a Huge Success!
The American College of Foot & Ankle Pediatrics (ACFAP) recently participated at the World Congress of Podiatry meeting in Montreal, Canada, May 26-28. This world-class event, which occurs once every 3 years, features the largest gathering of international podiatrists in the world. President of ACFAP, Dr. Louis J. DeCaro, presented a 90 minute lecture on the H&P of the pediatric patient. “Representing ACFAP and pediatric foot and ankle care on a world stage, in front of a “standing room only” crowd, was quite an honor.” The World Congress of Podiatry and ACFAP share similar missions: providing for the advancement and continuing education of Podiatric medical professionals.
