Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in approximately 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually many podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received encompassing healthcare instruction with an importance on issues involving the feet and ankles. They are trained to treat issues varying from normal ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which provide them the prior experience required to execute surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet generally experience.
