2025 Podiatric Physician Renewal

Podiatric Physician Renewal

Effective at 11:59 pm Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) on June 30, 2025, all current licenses for podiatric physicians will expire unless successfully renewed during the Board’s renewal period.  Because there is no grace period for practice after expiration, the Board encourages early renewal to avoid unexpected problems or delays in renewal completion. 

Renewal Process

On May 5, 2025, the Board mailed a 2025 Podiatric Physician License Renewal Application to the address on record for each podiatric physician who is eligible to renew. Additionally, the 2025 Podiatric Physician License Renewal Application is available for download. To avoid license expiration, the Board must receive a completed renewal application, any required supplemental documentation and payment of the renewal application fee prior to 4:30 pm EDT on June 30, 2025.  

Renewal Fee

 The Board’s renewal fee for podiatric physicians has not changed:

ACTIVE STATUS LICENSE - $400.00             INACTIVE STATUS LICENSE - $150.00

ACTIVE status licensees may change their licensure status during renewal. To change license status from INACTIVE to ACTIVE, please contact the Board.

Do not submit payment with your application. Upon receipt of a completed renewal application, the Board will send payment instructions to the email address provided on the renewal application. The application will not be processed until payment is received.

CPE Reminder

Renewal applicants must successfully complete all required CPE between July 1, 2023 and the date that a renewal application is submitted.

Proof of West Virginia Controlled Substance Monitoring Program Database Registration
