Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest around a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and a number of podiatry programs are located within these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received encompassing medical training with an importance on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to deal with difficulties stretching from typical afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgery on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and prevent countless conditions which the feet normally experience.
