Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest approximately a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received significant medical instruction with a main focus on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to care for concerns ranging from conventional ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience required to execute surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of complications which the feet routinely experience.
