Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have gained comprehensive health care education with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to deal with difficulties extending from commonplace ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which furnish them the expertise essential to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet usually encounter.
