Previously offered by Sam. A good place to start!

> The discussion on The Professionalization of Orthotics & Prosthetics by
> Sidney Fishman, Ph.D., in the June 1, 2001 issue of O&P Business New
should
> be read and studied by everyone in the field of orthotics and prosthetics.
>
> As always, Dr. Fishman's discussion on this subject is both thorough, well
> thought out and directly to the point. The historical background on O&P
> education could not be presented by anyone with the depth of knowledge
> possessed by Dr. Fishman.
>
> Whether you agree or disagree with all of Dr. Fishman's recommendations or
> positions is beside the point. This article is the absolute best on this
> subject I have seen in all my years of reading on O&P education and
> professional development.
>
> Younger people in the field who have not had the opportunity to know Dr.
> Fishman personally and professionally have missed much in their career
> development.
>
> Sid, my hat is off to you -- thanks for, again, bringing forth such an
> important discussion on subjects related to The Professionalization of
> Orthotics and Prosthetics.
