If You Can Do Ballet, You Can Do Anything | Dr. Miko Fogarty

BALLET SCIENCE PODCAST: EPISODE 67

What happens when an accomplished ballet dancer decides to leave the stage… and pursue medicine instead?

In this Ballet Science Encore, I revisit my conversation with Dr. Miko Fogarty, a former professional ballet dancer and international competition winner who made an extraordinary transition from the stage to podiatric medicine.

Now a foot and ankle surgery resident, Miko offers a unique perspective on dancers’ feet, pointe work, injury prevention, and the connection between dance and medicine.

Ballet Science Encore: Every so often, I revisit one of the most informative conversations from the Ballet Science archives. These Encore episodes feature timeless advice that remains just as relevant today, often in a shorter, curated highlights format.
