Airdrie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Airdrie provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive medical instruction with an emphasis on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to handle difficulties varying from standard problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which furnish them the experience vital to execute surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive expertise 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against numerous issues which the feet usually experience.
