Podiatrists: Dr. Jason Lehr

Airdrie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Airdrie specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They invest about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality several podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough health care education with a stress on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to care for concerns stretching from conventional ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which furnish them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive expertise 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent countless issues which the feet generally experience.
