Somehow podiatry came up ( I have no background in medicine) and I was wondering why in the world are feet doctors a specialty compared to a general surgeon or someone that might fix a broken arm or hand issues?

In the US, it’s easier to get into podiatric medical school than regular med school to become an MD. In the US, podiatrists are doctors of podiatric medicine. Not the same thing as MD. You can practice medicine faster for less money and it’s way less competitive.
