Doctors at The Foot Institute – Airdrie provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in about ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually various podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired significant healthcare instruction with an emphasis on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to treat complications varying from regular disorders such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience crucial to execute surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against numerous problems which the feet generally experience.
