Most states require completion of a residency or a post-graduate training to practice. The majority of podiatric physicians are in solo practices, large group practices, or multi- specialty practices. Most podiatric surgeons work in surgery centers or hospitals performing both medical and surgical treatments for patients. As in many other specialties, some podiatrists work in nursing homes and some perform house calls for patients. Podiatric patients range from newborns and infants to the geriatric.
