About Guest: 
Dr. Shalvi Prasad founded PodMedAdventures in the hopes of spreading awareness about Podiatric Medicine and Surgery as a career option and to create a one-stop shop for pre-pods, current students, practicing physicians, and industry leaders. Working with underserved communities on an interdisciplinary team is near and dear to her heart and she strives to help patients as a physician and advocate in legislation. Dr. Prasad is interested in politics and legislation because it’s important to not only advocate for

patients, but that it’s necessary to be proactive about the future of the profession and to ensure that the best bills and laws are being put into action by those who will be impacted most. Shalvi believes that recruitment is

important because the field needs more representation, visibility, and value. Dr. Prasad stumbled onto the career when she worked as a pre-health student advisor. After being an Emergency Department scribe, managing and volunteering at clinics, and shadowing throughout her undergraduate career and during her gap years, she quickly realized that Podiatric Medicine was the “hidden gem” of medicine. Dr. Prasad wants to build visibility, inclusion, and representation within the Podiatric Medicine field. Dr. Shalvi Prasad founded PodMedAdventures in the hopes of
