Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend approximately a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained comprehensive health care instruction with a stress on complications concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to care for difficulties stretching from simple conditions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which furnish them the prior experience crucial to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet frequently encounter.
