Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and many podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received extensive medical training with a concentration on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are qualified to care for difficulties extending from commonplace ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which furnish them the expertise necessary to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against countless troubles which the feet usually encounter.
