Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and actually various podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received significant healthcare education with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to address issues varying from normal disorders like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the skill crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent countless problems which the feet regularly encounter.
