Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in reality various podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained considerable healthcare education with a main focus on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to manage problems stretching from common problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive 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 deviations permits a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
