Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest about a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually many podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained extensive health care education with a main focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. They are studied to manage problems varying from familiar ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the skill crucial to execute surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against countless problems which the feet frequently encounter.
