Podiatrists: Dr. Jason Lehr

Airdrie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Airdrie concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes lie within these schools. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have obtained considerable medical training with a stress on complications concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address concerns varying from basic disorders for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the experience essential to conduct surgery on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet typically experience.
