Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote around a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.
At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained wide-ranging healthcare training with an attention to on concerns involving the ankles and feet. They are trained to address concerns stretching from standard problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.
Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge 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. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
