Airdrie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Airdrie provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve 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 point of fact several podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received thorough healthcare training with an emphasis on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to care for issues extending from usual problems for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which give them the practical experience crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of countless issues which the feet typically experience.
