Airdrie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Airdrie concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest around ten years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received substantial healthcare education with an attention to on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to treat conditions ranging from familiar ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which supply them the skill essential to conduct surgery on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against many issues which the feet generally experience.
