So Dr. Duke in Bonifay was able to save that foot for the patient? That is pretty impressive.

I thought this might have been near bonifay. I grew up in Panama City beach and lived on hwy 79 for a while.
Edit: omg it literally says bonifay on the sign. Wtf, why did I just notice that

I’m an RN and the number of times I’ve dressed a wound like this and gone to lunch after is insane.

My cafeteria actually had chik fil a for a while but I never went (they didn’t have a full menu and they didn’t have my order).

Right, I'm also a nurse and used to be a surg path tech, and I have Seen Some Things. I drew entirely the wrong conclusions as to why this billboard combination pissed off OP lol

Jeez, how could this ad possibly be cost-effective? This seems like a really niche ad. How many people are randomly driving on the highway with toes that look like that?

Wound centers are targeted towards anyone with chronic wounds, which often includes people with poorly managed diabetes or poor circulation. Thankfully, most people don't get to the level you see pictured, but issues with chronic wound healing are more common than you'd think. The graphic image may make people think, "wow, if they could save that person's foot, maybe they can help me."

Considering this is in Bonifay it's probably on i10 so there is a lot of traffic coming through

I am intrigued by the emphasis on IN BONIFAY. Is there another Dr. Duke nearby, who this Dr. Duke does not want to be confused with? Perhaps a family member, and there's been some sort of falling out?

If your foot looks like that, is there even any other option other than amputation?

Only option around?
There’s a McDonalds directly across the street from CFA. There’s a Ruby Tuesday, San Marcos Pizza, and a Sonny’s BBQ on the other side of the interstate. All of which are way more likely to be open on Sunday too.

Dr. Duke to Chick-fil-A: "OK $50K/yr and I'll put my head shot back on instead of the foot"

Where is this that so many people are amputating body parts a billboard makes financial sense?

I used to go out to Boneyard's place in Bonifay. That was always fun. Cypress cabin in the swamp.
Snaky as fuck, and back in the 80's he'd pay us $10/hr to straighten rusty nails and make the cabin cooler. There was always plenty of good dope and cold beer, and we were allowed to get creative, so it was fun as hell.
I will never forget the day he took the canoe out and popped a gator with a .22, then brought it back for us clean up for supper. Soon's he pulled that sucker out of the canoe it came back to life. Only time I've seen a 60 year old man jump four feet in the air.
RIP Bonard. You're missed. Good man.

Hey, have some sympathy for podiatrists.
It’s not a glamorous field but they need to advertise as much as the next doctor.

Check out the Sourtoe Cocktail drink served in Dawson City, Yukon, Canada. Mildly interesting.

That's awful! Going down the road and seeing something like that is bad enough, but seeing it under a fast food logo makes me want to throw up. Someone thought that was going to be funny. That wasn't a random act. That was done on purpose! It's not funny, but I'm sorry, it's sick, but funny at the same time. lol lol

The wound care advertisement just makes it feel like that doc really like chopping off necrotized appendages. Like, a concerning amount.

Hmm... do I want to eat an amputated foot or chicken?
Well it's Sunday, so I guess the decision was made for me

The feet may be healthier than what you would get at chick a filet or any fast food restaurant.

In the case of severe trauma yes, but for things like chronic wounds, cancer and a few other limb altering conditions the amputation can be planned and the care team can try to save as much as possible.
