Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and actually numerous podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive healthcare education with an emphasis on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to care for concerns ranging from familiar afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous issues which the feet routinely experience.
