Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality many podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received extensive medical training with an attention to on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to deal with problems varying from commonplace afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against many complications which the feet generally experience.
