Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend around 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired comprehensive medical training with an emphasis on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to deal with issues varying from commonplace disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the practical experience crucial to carry out surgery on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet regularly experience.
