Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired thorough health care training with a main focus on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are educated to treat issues extending from normal disorders such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities.
