Calgary Signal Hill Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Calgary Signal Hill specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote about ten years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality a number of podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained substantial medical training with a focus on problems concerning the feet and ankles. They are educated to treat difficulties ranging from common disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which give them the prior experience crucial to execute surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and help prevent many complications which the feet frequently encounter.
