Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received substantial medical instruction with a stress on complications involving the ankles and feet. They are qualified to treat difficulties extending from basic disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which provide them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
