Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired extensive medical education with an attention to on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to handle conditions extending from general problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience crucial to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of issues which the feet normally encounter.
