Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received comprehensive healthcare instruction with an attention to on complications involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat issues stretching from basic conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which provide them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against countless complications which the feet typically encounter.
