Calgary Beddington Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Calgary Beddington focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired substantial health care training with a focus on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to handle problems varying from familiar conditions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to conduct surgery on those issues that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally 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 tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against a large number of troubles which the feet normally encounter.
