Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest approximately a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained encompassing healthcare education with an attention to on conditions involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to treat complications stretching from simple afflictions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which supply them the experience crucial to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and prevent a large number of problems which the feet routinely encounter.
