Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained substantial medical education with a stress on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address issues stretching from usual afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against countless problems which the feet normally experience.
