Edmonton Windermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Windermere concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality numerous podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired encompassing medical instruction with an importance on conditions involving the ankles and feet. They are studied to address conditions ranging from familiar conditions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical training which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid numerous complications which the feet generally experience.
