Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive medical training with an attention to on issues regarding the ankles and feet. They are skilled to deal with difficulties stretching from normal conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which provide them the expertise crucial to execute surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet usually experience.
