Leduc Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Leduc specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact many podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received encompassing health care education with an emphasis on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to handle complications stretching from usual conditions such as 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 thorough surgical education which supply them the experience needed to carry out surgery on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent a large number of complications which the feet normally experience.
