Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in approximately ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive health care training with a stress on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to treat conditions ranging from typical ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid a large number of issues which the feet regularly experience.
