Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact various podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received significant healthcare education with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are skilled to address concerns extending from typical afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
