The New York State Podiatric Medical Association (NYSPMA) is a tax-exempt not-for-profit, voluntary professional association uniting 3 of every 4 doctors of podiatric medicine (DPM's) in New York State. NYSPMA is the largest statewide component of the American Podiatric Medical Association (www.apma.org) and its affiliated national network of certifying boards and professional colleges. Established in 1895, we were the first organization of its kind in America.
