Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in approximately ten 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 acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired wide-ranging medical training with a stress on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to care for issues ranging from simple disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which give them the experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of troubles which the feet usually experience.
