Allopathic medicine has a couples match. Is there a couples match in podiatry?
Because podiatry is a much smaller profession (450 in the Match last year vs. 30,000 for allopathic medicine), there is no couples match. Many of our residencies are grouped together, around the colleges or in major cities, so finding two programs near each other is very possible. New York, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Miami and Chicago are all examples of this. If you are looking at programs like Intermountain in Utah that have multiple positions but are not near any other programs, you may want to talk to the residency director about your situation. To guarantee that you are in the same part of the country you may have to limit your rankings to one state or region.
