Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and many podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.
Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received significant health care training with an importance on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to care for problems varying from common ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.
Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against countless issues which the feet usually experience.
