Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest approximately a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and numerous podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired considerable medical training with a stress on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to deal with concerns ranging from common conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise necessary to conduct surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid a large number of issues which the feet normally experience.
