Bonnyville Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Bonnyville specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these schools. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained extensive medical training with an emphasis on complications involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to manage concerns ranging from familiar afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical education which give them the expertise necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
