Podiatrists: Dr. Jason Lehr

Airdrie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Airdrie provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in about ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and several podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received extensive health care instruction with an attention to on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. They are educated to treat issues ranging from commonplace afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which give them the prior experience required to perform surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough 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 tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics that can provide pain relief and avoid countless conditions which the feet normally encounter.
