Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend around ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received substantial healthcare training with a concentration on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to treat concerns stretching from usual problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which give them the prior experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against countless complications which the feet regularly experience.
