Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and numerous podiatry programmes are located within these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained substantial medical instruction with an emphasis on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat conditions stretching from usual disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which furnish them the practical experience necessary to execute surgery on those conditions that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and avoid many problems which the feet normally encounter.
