Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote about a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired wide-ranging healthcare education with an emphasis on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage complications ranging from conventional disorders such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise required to execute surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and avoid many problems which the feet commonly experience.
