Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and actually quite a number podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired considerable medical instruction with a concentration on concerns regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to treat conditions extending from familiar ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which provide them the practical experience necessary to execute surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against numerous problems which the feet generally experience.
