Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received encompassing healthcare education with a main focus on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to manage problems stretching from usual disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which give them the practical experience required to perform surgery on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical intervention.
