BOARD CERTIFICATION

Podiatric Orthobiologics + Regenerative Medicine

With Dr. Nicole K. Graf, DPM, FACPM, C.Ped, CPP

Your patients have read the articles. They have listened to the podcasts. They are arriving with questions about PRP, peptides, exosomes. The only board credential designed end-to-end by a practicing podiatrist — built so you can hold that conversation with clinical authority.

Regenerative medicine, structured for how podiatrists actually practice.

The course is architected so that every modality, every protocol, and every decision ties back to the same four-variable framework. You learn the tools and the judgment to deploy them, together, not separately.

Three principles

1 Built by a podiatrist

Architected end-to-end by Dr. Nicole K. Graf around the real conditions, treatment decisions, and workflow demands of foot and ankle practice.

2 One framework

Thirteen modalities route through a single four-variable instrument — tissue, biology, load, recovery — so every protocol is defensible.

3 One credential

A board-level certification in orthobiologics and regenerative medicine, granted on completion and listed in the Medbridge registry.

A complete toolkit, organized by decision, not by discipline.

Most CME catalogues present these modalities as separate topics. Here, they are organized by how a foot and ankle patient actually presents — so the choice between them becomes a clinical decision, not a course lookup.

Four inputs. One defensible protocol.

A diagnosis-driven instrument that converts modality knowledge into clinical judgment. Every case, from chronic plantar fasciitis to a non-healing diabetic wound, passes through the same four readings.

Tissue, biology, load, recovery. Four inputs any foot and ankle clinician can read in the exam room, producing one protocol you can document, defend, and explain with confidence.

“

Our specialty is changing faster than our training ever prepared us for. The podiatrists who commit to expanding what they know will expand who they can treat, and the practices that grow from that are the ones patients drive across the city to find."

Frequently asked questions

Who is this course designed for?

Practicing podiatrists who want to build regenerative medicine into their clinical offering with structure, confidence, and a defensible framework. Whether you're already running PRP and shockwave and want to expand into peptides and exosomes, or you're starting from scratch and want to build the full regenerative toolkit, the curriculum is calibrated to meet you where you are. DPMs, DPM residents, and foot and ankle focused clinicians will get the most out of this certification.

Do I need regenerative experience to enroll?

No. The program assumes clinical fluency in podiatry and brings you to board-level proficiency in orthobiologics from first principles.

How long does it take to complete?

Most clinicians complete the certification within 12-weeks while practicing full time. There is no time pressure. Access is ongoing, and many participants work through the material alongside real patient cases to reinforce what they're learning.

How is the course delivered?

The course is self-paced and accessible online through the Medbridge Global Academy. You can progress through the material on your schedule, return to modules as often as you need, and apply protocols in your practice as you learn them.

Do I need to be a US based clinician to enroll?

No. The course is open to credentialed podiatric physicians internationally. Accreditation pathways vary by jurisdiction. Our enrollment team can answer questions specific to your region.
