Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired extensive health care education with an importance on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to treat conditions ranging from conventional ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which provide them the skill vital to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
