Synopsis

What do you do when you flunk the very goal you are aiming for? An enforced gap year after leaving school then a chance meeting and a career in chiropody beckoned David. Not the one he wanted, but it would do? Against all odds a new, unregulated profession slowly emerged. One man’s vision could be another man’s nightmare. Had he made a big mistake in wanting to become a foot surgeon? Opposition and resistance grew? Surely only medical doctors operated? This is the true story how podiatry emerged for one man supported by a loving wife and family in eighties Britain.What readers have said...The story reflects the mood of the time and captures the struggles of a young man doggedly pursuing his dream against the odds. The period between 1978-86 is lucidly conveyed - Professor Alan M Borthwick OBE - I was amazed at the opposition you had to overcome at times - Taylor Dowling It is a fantastic story, riveting. I read it for pleasure and what a pleasure it was. This book will be read voraciously by podiatrists everywhere - Dr Tim Kilmartin For me, it was a page turner... a very easy read with an underpinning of extensive knowledge. Brilliant -Alison Charlton As a novel I simply loved reading your story. There are highs and lows, laughter and tears and your drive and humility were well matched to get you through - Janet McGroggan Thoroughly entertaining, I found it very easy to read and enjoyed it immensely - Rob Hardy
