Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received encompassing health care training with a concentration on issues involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to handle issues stretching from general ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which supply them the expertise needed to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of conditions which the feet commonly experience.
