Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote about a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians 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 Podiatrists have gained encompassing medical instruction with a stress on conditions regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to care for issues ranging from normal ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which furnish them the skill required to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against countless conditions which the feet frequently experience.
