Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in about a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and actually numerous podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired substantial healthcare training with an emphasis on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to address conditions stretching from common ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the prior experience needed to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against many troubles which the feet typically encounter.
