Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and actually various podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical education with an emphasis on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to address issues varying from familiar conditions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience required to carry out surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities.
