Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained substantial medical training with a main focus on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to care for concerns stretching from usual ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which supply them the experience vital to perform surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous complications which the feet normally encounter.
