Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend around ten years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained substantial health care education with a main focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to address concerns ranging from standard problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against numerous conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
