Airdrie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Airdrie concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in reality numerous podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received thorough healthcare education with an attention to on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to handle complications extending from usual afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the experience required to perform surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and avoid countless troubles which the feet generally encounter.
