Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote approximately ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired extensive medical instruction with a concentration on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. They are skilled to care for difficulties stretching from common disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which supply them the practical experience crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive 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 activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many complications which the feet frequently encounter.
