Physicians at The Foot Institute – Airdrie provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest about a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate 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 general medical school and in reality many podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained considerable medical instruction with an attention to on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to address difficulties varying from commonplace problems for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical education which supply them the prior experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and defend against countless conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
