Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They devote about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually a number of podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained significant healthcare training with a focus on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address difficulties ranging from normal disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which furnish them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive 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 peculiarities enables a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and prevent countless issues which the feet usually encounter.
