Governor Shapiro Commits to Foot & Ankle Care Excellence by Appointing Past President Edwin Hart III

(Camp Hill, PA) Pennsylvania Podiatric Medical Association (PPMA) Past President Edwin Hart III, DPM, a leading figure in the field, has been appointed to the PA State Board of Podiatry, pledging to uphold excellent standards in treating PA patients' foot and ankle care.

Hart is one of five dedicated podiatrists on the State Board of Podiatry, which ensures the highest quality care through its licensing and continuing education requirements.

Hart is no stranger to these tasks. He has served as president of the state association, chaired a continuing education event for nearly 20 years, and was a board member for its educational component, The Goldfarb Foundation. Hart firmly declares, “It is an honor to serve the state of Pennsylvania in this capacity and support the quality care and dedication that the podiatric profession brings to the table every day.”

Hart practices out of his independent office (“Dr. Edwin S. Hart, Podiatrist”) in Bethlehem, PA, where he has treated patients with compassion since 1985.

Hart’s journey in podiatry has allowed him to learn and serve across the state. He graduated from Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine (TUSPM). Hart received his BA from both Temple University and the prestigious Central High School in Philadelphia, PA. He completed his residency requirements at the Podiatry Hospital of Pittsburgh.

PPMA represents its 800+ members by providing a unified voice for the podiatric profession, including advancement and advocacy. This allows the profession to continue providing quality care for Pennsylvania patients needing expert foot and ankle care. More information about PPMA can be found at www.ppma.org.
