Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained thorough medical training with a main focus on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to manage problems varying from common afflictions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical education which furnish them the practical experience essential to execute surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and prevent a large number of troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
