Edmonton Downtown Clinic Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Downtown specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote about a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained considerable medical training with a focus on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. They are instructed to manage problems varying from simple problems like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which furnish them the skill crucial to carry out surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
