Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical training with an attention to on concerns involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat problems varying from common problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the skill needed to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge 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 activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against countless complications which the feet normally encounter.
