Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They invest around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and actually a number of podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained thorough medical training with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to address difficulties ranging from familiar problems like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the expertise required to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
