PPMA Past President Maryann Hartzell, DPM, FACFAS, CWS, has recently been featured in the APMSA newsletter in a heart-to-heart interview about women in podiatry.💓

TUSPM's Medical Director advises readers to "treat patients as if they were their parents or grandparents." Great advice indeed.❤

The article discusses how she achieved work-life balance as both a mother and a doctor.

PPMA appreciates Dr. Hartzell's past, present, and future contributions to podiatry. She is a true gem!

Read the full article that includes conversations about the start of her career that spans 30 years, from running clinics to teaching residents in Allentown to her current role at Temple.
