Dr. Ben Pearl has been selected to provide podiatric medical coverage during the 44th running of the Marine Corps Marathon scheduled for October 27, 2019 just outside Washington, DC. Dr. Pearl, a Fellow of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine, will be supervising a team of podiatric medical students from Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine (TUSPM). He was chosen by Dr. Howard Palamarchuk one of his former mentors and professors, to assist with the race coverage since Dr. Palamarchuk will be unable to take part in this year’s event.
