Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical instruction with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with concerns varying from standard problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which provide them the experience needed to conduct surgery on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many conditions which the feet frequently experience.
