Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually various podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired substantial health care education with a main focus on concerns involving the ankles and feet. They are taught to manage conditions stretching from standard disorders for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the experience required to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and prevent countless troubles which the feet commonly experience.
