Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical education with an emphasis on issues involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat difficulties extending from conventional problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which supply them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent a large number of conditions which the feet normally experience.
