Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and several podiatry programs are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired encompassing medical instruction with a stress on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to handle difficulties extending from usual problems for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical training which supply them the expertise essential to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet generally experience.
