Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and actually a number of podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired extensive medical training with an emphasis on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to handle problems ranging from standard ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical training which give them the experience needed to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet frequently experience.
