Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and several podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial health care education with a concentration on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to treat problems stretching from familiar ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which supply them the experience needed to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid numerous conditions which the feet typically experience.
