Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and actually a number of podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive health care education with an importance on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat issues ranging from typical problems for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which provide them the experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid a large number of problems which the feet frequently encounter.
