Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing medical education with an importance on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to address difficulties extending from commonplace disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which furnish them the prior experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid countless troubles which the feet normally encounter.
