Alec Hochstein, DPM
Great Neck, NY
I attend several seminars throughout the year - both to lecture and to learn.
There are many conferences that have outstanding speakers and lectures on the agenda, so I definitely also consider where the meeting is being held. When choosing a conference, I am initially drawn to those in destinations that are interesting to visit.
I love NOLA
!.
Plus, as I’m preparing to head off, I always make sure to scope out amazing restaurants in the area. Often, we don't have time to sight-see during a conference, so eating a great meal or two is a good way to feel like you still get to experience the area. Being a busy practicing physician, I don’t get to travel much other than for work so I try to make the most of it!
Some of my favorites to attend are the
Podiatry Institute
meetings. My top-choice location of those seminars is
Newport, Rhode Island
. Dan Vickers does a great job putting these meetings together and the content is always relevant and useful in my practice.
Of course as a New Yorker, I always attend the
NYSPMA
in January
and enjoy seeing old friends and colleagues.
When I'm at a meeting and we have lecture breaks, I enjoy making the rounds in the exhibit hall to visit with vendors I have relationships with, as well as to learn about new products I could see being a good fit for my practice. It's surprising how often I see something new that has promise, after I thought I had already "seen it all."
We all know that attending conferences means taking time out of our practices, which can cost us. Because of this, I try to be very strategic with my choices. I don’t usually attend the same ones every year because I have found that each meeting is different and has something unique to offer.
Dr. Hochstein is a 1997 graduate of the New York College of Podiatric Medicine, and is currently in private practice as owner/operator of Great Neck Family Foot Care in Great Neck, NY on Long Island’s North Shore where he lives with his wife and two children

June 2019's Featured Vendor: The Richie Brace®
|
|
The Richie Brace®
and Podiatry Meetings
The Richie Brace®
is a unique custom ankle-foot orthosis which is widely recognized and utilized in the podiatric profession. The original Standard Richie Brace®
was designed by Dr. Douglas Richie in 1996, and since then he has introduced seven other models as well as a new line of carbon fiber AFO braces known as the
AeroSpring Systems
.
The custom Richie Brace® products are provided to podiatric practitioners via a network of authorized lab distributors. These distributors are unique as they are independent foot orthotic labs who also share in the distribution of the Richie Brace®
branded products.
A new and exciting innovation being offered by many of the Richie Brace®
lab distributors is the option for digital scanning of the patient using an
iPad Structure Scanner
. This eliminates the need for plaster or fiberglass casting materials and allows the practitioner to send the scan electronically to the lab and avoid delays in shipping.
There, podiatric physicians can visit the booth of the distributor to learn about their unique line of products and services as well as the entire Richie Brace®
product offering.
This is also a great opportunity for a practitioner to learn first-hand how to use an iPad to take a scan of the foot and ankle and order a Richie Brace®
.
