Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in around ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and several podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received substantial healthcare training with a stress on problems involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to care for conditions extending from commonplace ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the practical experience necessary to execute surgery on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous complications which the feet regularly encounter.
