Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote approximately a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and many podiatry programmes are contained within these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial healthcare training with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are skilled to address conditions extending from general ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which supply them the skill crucial to perform surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
