Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received substantial health care training with a main focus on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to deal with issues stretching from general problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience needed to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent countless troubles which the feet normally encounter.
