Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality several podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained substantial medical instruction with a focus on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat concerns extending from standard ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of problems which the feet usually encounter.
