At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive medical education with a focus on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat problems stretching from conventional ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise vital to perform surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore 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.
