Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote approximately a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received encompassing healthcare instruction with a main focus on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. They are instructed to deal with conditions varying from regular conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which furnish them the experience needed to execute surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against a large number of issues which the feet frequently experience.
