Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in approximately a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained thorough healthcare education with a concentration on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to care for concerns stretching from simple conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which give them the practical experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet routinely experience.
