Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest approximately a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained substantial health care instruction with an attention to on concerns involving the ankles and feet. They are instructed to deal with conditions stretching from normal problems for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which supply them the skill essential to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet typically experience.
