Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained wide-ranging healthcare training with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to manage difficulties ranging from typical ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which provide them the prior experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet routinely experience.
