    I was interviewed by Dominic Weeks on the role of podiatrists in health care and how I came to be a podiatrist. We discussed when to seek help from a podiatrist and the types of foot issues we face. I speak about podiatrists being doctors and experts on the lower extremity and of course, the importance of foot health.

    Thank you for showing this side of a selfless, professional, caring Podiatrist. His videos shows that he really care for ALL of his patients. He actually moisturizes his patients feet and lower legs after all procedures. He has a Christ-like heir about himself when treating his patients. (HOLISTIC!)

    “Take care of your feet!” And I wear properly fitting shoes. I’m listening, Doctor.

    From Judy in Australia 🇦🇺. This man is one of the most compassionate caring professionals in foot care. He has a special gift for teaching what is optimal in healthcare for feet and a unique way of unobtrusively questioning his patients to help them in all aspects of their body not just feet. His way of treating people, the respect and dignity he affords them, should, in my opinion be required viewing for all health professionals. This is the way most people wish to be treated. I have nothing but admiration for this remarkable man and my only regret is that I live an ocean away from his skills. ❤️🇦🇺

    What a pleasant surprise to see this interview. I am a regular subscriber from Maryland and would not miss any of Dr. Jefferson's videos. As stated in the interview how Dr. Jefferson chose podiatry as a profession as it was predicted to be a shortage of physicians in the practice I can pretty much tell this came to be true anytime you have patients that fly in from all over the U.S. to be treated by Dr. Jefferson. I truly believe this is Dr. Jefferson's calling and happy to see how he shares so much knowledge and helpful tips with all patients coming from all walks of life. All patients it seems are treated equal with respect by Dr. Jefferson and staff no matter the circumstances. Awesome to know that once a week one can be tested for poor circulation of blood flow to the lower legs and feet which without treatment can be a problem. Take Care of Your Feet and wear the correct size shoe (make certain the shoes are deep enough and wide enough) for your feet. Change the shoes often. Wow I get it..

    Dr Jefferson, of all the foot Dr videos out there. You are the absolute best. You are the most thorough when finding out the over all health of your patient. And I love how good your patients nails and feet look when you are through. God bless you, be well.

    Nice to see an interview with Dr Jefferson. I really admire him D.C.Foot Dr is one of my very favourite CZcams channels. Full of great information and I have learned so much about foot care and foot health from this wonderful Dr. Such a beautifully caring manner with his patients, always so respectful and never judgemental. When I watch him it truly reminds me of Jesus washing the disciples feet. I believe he has a true gift in looking after not just peoples feet but also looking out for their general health as well. A truly admiral and humble man and Dr.

    Unfortunately I haven't had the pleasure of utilizing his services. However, I do follow his CZcams page. Although, I have not been successful in finding a podiatrist in my area that provides the level of care that he does. They haven't done any test, they just look and prescribe meds which never work. Thankfully all of the advice he gives on home foot care has been a blessing. Thank you for having him on your platform and thank you foot doctor for your channel.

    This was very informative. Anytime I've come across leg wounds the patient would be under the care of a wound doctor or GP. Seeing you care for a leg wound was a first for me. You do a great job. Thank you.

    I recently had foot surgery because I had a puncture wound at the bottom of my foot that got infection and a cyst formed. The surgery they cut and drained it. There’s only two stitches on each side and middle left open . Now I’m back at home still experiencing a lot of pain and they said bleeding would be normal but just feel like I’m doing something wrong
