PODIATRISTS IN THE COMMUNITY - PART 2
CA Podiatrist Celebrates 100th Birthday
Longtime Coachella Valley resident Mel Barton, DPM is not asking for much for his 100th birthday. "I just want to be happy. And just take life easy, that's all," said Dr. Barton. Barton's official birthday is on July 5 but he celebrated the amazing milestone Sunday morning with nearly 20 of his close friends and family. His three daughters organized a brunch in celebration of the amazing life he has lived.

Barton said he had many priceless memories over the years. Some were painful like remarrying and losing his wife, to experiencing the hardships of The Great Depression and World War II. Other memories of his are full of joy, like going to school and becoming a podiatrist and practicing for almost 40 years.
