Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and actually numerous podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received considerable medical training with a focus on issues involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to deal with concerns ranging from familiar disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the prior experience vital to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent a large number of troubles which the feet generally experience.
