It was in elementary school in Queens Village, New York, at a Kiwanis
Club Career Night that Sherwood Weisman met a very friendly podiatrist.
He visited the doctor numerous times at his office, and was introduced
to the Doctor's patients as young Dr. Kildare (after the television
series starring Richard Chamberlain).
Dr. Weisman saw how the neighborhood doctor gently treated his
patients and alleviated the pain in their feet. He also saw how
the patients were appreciative of the doctor's talents and kindness.
Dr. Weisman then realized that his own scoutmaster was also a podiatrist.
He researched the scope of the practice of the podiatric medical
profession, and the education and training necessary to become a
Doctor of Podiatric Medicine. From that moment on Dr. Weisman set
his sights on his life-long career as a podiatric physician.
Dr. Weisman says that a Podiatric Physician treats all foot disorders
in all age groups.
Before arriving in this area in 1972, Dr. Weisman was a Clinical
Instructor at The Foot Clinics of New York, affiliated with the
New York College of Podiatric Medicine. He was also a clinician
at the foot clinic at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City.
He has served as President of the Central Florida Podiatric Medical
Society, and was also President of the DeBary-Deltona Rotary
Club (1980 - 1981), a service organization affiliated with Rotary
International.
In his spare time, Dr. Weisman is a volunteer at the Hebrew Day
School of Central Florida and is the trustee for Amateur
Radio Station K4HDS, where he started a Ham Radio Club.
