Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact various podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained thorough medical education with a stress on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to manage problems ranging from regular ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which supply them the expertise required to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent numerous problems which the feet generally encounter.
