Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained considerable health care education with a focus on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat complications extending from general ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet typically encounter.
