Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging health care instruction with an attention to on problems involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to address difficulties varying from normal conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which supply them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid many troubles which the feet usually experience.
