Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest about ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in point of fact many podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained significant medical education with an attention to on problems concerning the feet and ankles. They are skilled to treat complications varying from regular afflictions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which give them the skill needed to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet commonly encounter.
