The difference between a podiatrist and pediatrician are the functions and type of doctors they are. Podiatrists treat all problems connected to the feet, whereas, Pediatricians treat children from infancy to the age of eighteen. Podiatrists are not medical doctors, they are doctors of podiatry. Pediatricians, on the other hand, are medical doctors.
