3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
Orthopodology II as a continuation Orthopodology I, deepens the knowledge necessary for the orthopedic treatments of the foot and leg. The necessary knowledge and skills are acquired at a basic level and will be perfected during the Practicum.
In addition, it is related in a transversal way with the other subjects, complementing them and providing a global vision of the intervention of the podiatrist in the field of orthopedics.
