Default Podiatry Laws in US Virgin Islands

Podiatry Arena members do not see these ads
Wasn't quite sure where to post this.....

Anyone have any idea re: the status of Podiatry in the USVI?
I've tried googling but just can't seem to find anything other than for MDs and Dentistry.

What I'd like to know is what the scope of practice for Podiatry is in the Virgin Islands and what is the licensing process. Any other information would be appreciates, i.e., status of healthcare in general, health insurance, etc........

Thanks

Steve

Is there anyone out there that knows anything about the laws in the USVI governing Podiatric Medicine?

No reply!

The silence is deafening.

Sorry Steve. Looks like Pods in USVI have signed a petition for Top Secrecy.

I think Mulder & Sculley could be your best bet.

ttfn, Mandy

Hi Mandy:
Thank you so much for trying to get this information, I appreciate it.

Must be a super sonic secret society.
Perhaps if I can find out the secret hand shake I can join!
