Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and several podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received considerable health care training with a focus on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to deal with difficulties varying from usual afflictions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the skill necessary to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet usually encounter.
