Doctors at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend approximately 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and actually several podiatry programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive medical education with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat issues stretching from general ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which give them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities.
