Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained thorough medical instruction with an attention to on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to treat conditions varying from basic problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the expertise vital to conduct surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of complications which the feet routinely encounter.
