Residencies
After completing the four-year podiatric medical program at Des Moines University, you will enter residency training. A podiatric resident is a licensed podiatric physician receiving advanced training in one or more aspects of the profession in a hospital- or college-based programs.
CPMS has an outstanding record of residency placement into the finest programs in the United States. One hundred percent of the CPMS Class of 2008 were placed in a three-year surgical residency program.
All of the institutions affiliated with the College of Podiatric Medicine and Surgery for fourth-year clinical rotations also conduct residency programs for post-doctoral study. Therefore, students should have a significant advantage in competing for residency programs because of their extensive fourth-year clinical experiences, frequently in the same setting in which they will seek a residency.
