Edmonton Downtown Clinic Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Downtown concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs are contained within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive health care training with a stress on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address difficulties stretching from typical conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the prior experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet routinely experience.
