Meet Alisha Joshi, APMA Intern and Future Podiatrist
Podiatry not only offers me the chance to
change the lives of people with chronic
conditions, but it also allows me to offer
solutions to problems in areas such as
sports medicine, dermatology, and surgery.

Hi!

My name is Alisha Joshi, and
I am a third-year podiatric
medical student at the Dr.
William M. Scholl College of Podiatric
Medicine. I am taking a gap year in
2021 and will be doing an internship
with APMA. I am working in conjunction
with Career Development Manager Tiffany
Kildale to help with a variety of projects.
I was born and raised in Chandler, AZ,
and went to college in upstate New York at
SUNY Geneseo. After graduating, I chose
to attend the Scholl. I fell in love with
podiatry when my cousin, Saylee Tulpule,
DPM, introduced me to it and told me that
if I shadowed just once I would find out
how amazing podiatry is. I took her advice,
shadowed a local DPM, and fell in love with
the field. Podiatry not only offers me the
chance to change the lives of people with
chronic conditions, but it also allows me to
offer solutions to problems in areas such as
sports medicine, dermatology, and surgery.
During my time at Scholl, I served as the
school's first student advocacy liaison
through the Illinois Podiatric Medical Student Association as well as chair for the
Scholl Student Ambassador program.
These roles led me to finding my passion
for helping advocate for the field of podiatry and helping expose future students to
the field. My other activities at Scholl
include doing research, being a TA, and
working with the student-run free clinic.
Through the Center for Lower Extremity and Ambulatory Research (CLEAR)
program, I spent eight weeks working
with Adam Fleischer, DPM, and was able
YOUR APMA / PAGE 2

to present my research, " Validation of the
Foot and Ankle Outcome Score for Use in
the Infracalcaneal Heel Pain, " as a poster
at the 2020 American College of Foot and
Ankle Surgery meeting, as well as at the
APMA Online CECH Summer Series as
an oral abstract presentation. I even won
Third Place for Outstanding Oral Abstract
last year! I also worked in conjunction
with the Scholl Student Chapter of the
American College of Podiatric Medicine
and peers to present a poster on the
application and efficacy of a modified lowdye taping.
Additionally, I served as the executive
officer for public relations at the Interprofessional Community Clinic (Rosalind

Franklin University's student-run free
clinic) that serves the surrounding lowincome population. Through that position,
I was able to raise more than $70,000 to
help further the clinic. I loved my time at
Scholl and would not trade my time there
for anything!
Through my time at APMA, I hope to
accomplish as much as I possibly can. My
main goals are to:
1.	 help assist and empower recruitment
efforts with help from current students
through the StepintoPodiatry.com website as well as interactive webinars;
2.	help both current and future student
engagement with APMA; and
3.	 help my peers gain a better understanding of all APMA departments.
I am so excited to be able to work with
APMA and am so thankful to the organization for giving me this opportunity. I am
looking forward to being able to update you
through this column during the upcoming
year. I hope you have a wonderful new year
and are excited to get 2021 started!
