Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired thorough healthcare education with a focus on complications involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to handle problems ranging from commonplace conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which give them the prior experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics that can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many troubles which the feet usually encounter.
