An applicant for a license to practice podiatric medicine must possess the following qualifications:
1. Be at least eighteen years of age;
2. Be of good moral character; and
3. Be a graduate of a podiatric medical school approved by the board based upon its faculty, curriculum, facilities, accreditation by a recognized national accrediting organization approved by the board, and other relevant factors.
All persons holding a license to practice podiatric medicine in this state on July 1, 1991, continue to be eligible for a license to practice podiatric medicine under this chapter.
Upon renewal of any license, the board may require the applicant to show sufficient proof of continuing medical education since the last application, which may include seminars or podiatry meetings. The board may waive the continuing education requirements in case of illness or other extenuating circumstances.
An applicant for a license must not have engaged in conduct warranting disciplinary action against a licensee or permittee in this state or another state. The board may issue a license or permit to an applicant who has engaged in conduct warranting disciplinary action if the board determines that the public will be protected through the issuance of a license or permit with conditions and limitations considered appropriate by the board. Applicants graduating after July 1, 1991, from a podiatric medical school shall present to the board evidence of the successful completion of a program of clinical residency.
