Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote about ten years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received substantial medical training with an attention to on conditions involving the feet and ankles. They are skilled to manage problems stretching from normal afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which provide them the experience needed to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet typically encounter.
