Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest around 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality many podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received encompassing medical training with a focus on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to address concerns stretching from familiar disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous issues which the feet generally encounter.
