Just when I thought I'd heard it all I read the following in today's paper.
This is just a snippet from the article and the quote comes from a Dr. Gabriel Lazar, local podiatrist:

On a scale of one to 10, Lazar gives El Pasoans a four in regards to foot care.

"Most people in other major cities know exactly what a podiatrist is and does," he said. "When you have a foot problem, you go to a podiatrist. In El Paso, we still don't know there is a specialty where all we do is foot and ankle treatment."



Gee....I wonder what kind of people would not have an inkling what a podiatrist was or that there were even doctors who could tend to one's feet?
Hummmmmm.....I can't imagine.
