Become a Fellow

Fellowship

Fellowship of the College empowers you to lead the conversation, set the standards and shape the future of your profession.

Our Fellows are at the heart of our College community and are our most senior members, who have made substantial contributions to their specialty.

Are you an ABPM diplomate?

Prospective members of the College who have completed recognised ABPM (American Board of Podiatric Medicine) training pathway can apply for Fellowship and do not require sponsorship to do so. ABPM Diplomates with more than 3 years of independent practice experience are eligible to apply for Fellowship of the Faculty of Podiatric Medicine.

To apply, first contact the ABPM, including your full name, date of birth, and CV at RCPSGapplications@podiatryboard.org – this is to verify your diplomate status and experience. The ABPM will forward your verification to the RCPSG membership department, who will be in touch with next steps to join.
