Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained comprehensive healthcare instruction with a focus on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. They are taught to care for problems varying from regular problems for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which provide them the experience needed to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against a large number of conditions which the feet usually experience.
