Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received substantial health care training with a focus on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to treat problems varying from conventional conditions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which furnish them the experience crucial to perform surgery 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 perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid countless problems which the feet generally experience.
