Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and many podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received thorough medical training with an importance on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat difficulties extending from regular problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which supply them the skill required to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet typically experience.
