Grande Prairie Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Grande Prairie provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programmes are contained within these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive medical training with an importance on concerns involving the ankles and feet. They are studied to deal with difficulties varying from conventional afflictions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which provide them the prior experience vital to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
