Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received wide-ranging health care training with an attention to on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. They are taught to treat concerns ranging from normal afflictions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which furnish them the expertise needed to conduct surgery on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against many issues which the feet regularly encounter.
