Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs lie within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received encompassing medical training with an attention to on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to address difficulties ranging from familiar ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the expertise needed to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent many complications which the feet generally encounter.
