From 1939 to 1955, the College was known as the Long Island University College of Podiatry. Upon dissolution of this affiliation, the College became an independent not-for-profit institution. In 1957 it was renamed the M.J. Lewi College of Podiatry in honor of its founder and first president. In 1969, an absolute charter was granted the trustees of the College by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York. In 1972, the College received its current name, the New York College of Podiatric Medicine. Located in the City of New York, the College had its first home at 125th Street and rapidly outgrew its quarters. Three successive moves culminated in the erection in 1927 of the present college building dedicated to podiatric medical education and clinical training. A building grant in 1976 from the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare enabled the creation of a separate, new clinical training facility, an expanded updated library and renovations to the existing college building. Completed in 1978, the new facility, the Foot Clinics of New York, provides clinical services to the community and is wholly owned and operated by the College. The largest center of its kind, the Foot Clinics of New York administer to a wide and diverse patient load in more than 60,000 patient visits. |
