Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and several podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received extensive health care education with a concentration on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to deal with concerns varying from regular ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which provide them the experience crucial to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent numerous issues which the feet generally experience.
