Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Camrose focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and in fact many podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received significant medical training with an attention to on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to manage difficulties stretching from basic ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which furnish them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against many troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
