Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and actually several podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake 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 gained comprehensive medical instruction with a focus on problems involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to care for concerns varying from common ailments like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which supply them the experience necessary to execute surgery on those concerns that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet generally encounter.
