Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest approximately a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive healthcare instruction with an emphasis on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to treat difficulties ranging from simple afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which furnish them the skill crucial to conduct surgery on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid countless conditions which the feet routinely experience.
