Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend approximately a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained thorough medical training with an importance on issues concerning the ankles and feet. They are taught to address difficulties ranging from usual afflictions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which give them the expertise necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against numerous problems which the feet generally encounter.
