Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact many podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained extensive health care instruction with an attention to on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to care for issues varying from common ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid countless conditions which the feet usually experience.
