Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained considerable healthcare training with an importance on conditions regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to care for concerns varying from conventional problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the experience crucial to conduct surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid a large number of problems which the feet usually experience.
