Josh Truscott, Podiatrist

An experienced clinician, and the founder of Ultimate Podiatrist. I've been practising podiatry for over 20 years and have owned and operated multiple clinics. And for the last eight years, I've been supporting Pods with their professional learning via our unique online platform - CPD Made Easy.

 

CPD Made Easy was created because year in and year out, my colleagues, employees and I continued to find the same CPD issues arising - there was no affordable way to learn from a wide variety of experts on a range of topics, no easy way gain all my professional development and no way to avoid travel expenses. But there were outrageous course costs in addition to time lost in the clinic, and worse still, loss of income and precious family and leisure time.
