Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in reality various podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received thorough health care training with an emphasis on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to manage issues varying from simple disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent countless issues which the feet routinely encounter.
