Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in reality various podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained extensive medical instruction with a focus on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to handle problems extending from commonplace ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which supply them the experience required to conduct surgery on those complications that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid numerous troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
