Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in reality several podiatry programs lie inside these schools. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained substantial health care training with a focus on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to manage difficulties stretching from general conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which give them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and prevent countless problems which the feet generally experience.
