Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received encompassing health care instruction with an importance on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to address difficulties varying from standard afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience required to carry out surgery on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet usually experience.
