Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one?
     The career pathway of a Podiatrist does not interest me. I would not like to work with the feet because the feet is my least favorite body part. However, the pay is a very very good pay, more than other jobs. But, I would rather do another career, work on a different body part. Although, one part of this career that I like is that they preform surgey. So, I would not like to be a podiatrist.
