Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually a number of podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired wide-ranging healthcare training with a concentration on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to treat problems varying from usual ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive expertise 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.
