Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received encompassing healthcare training with an emphasis on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with concerns stretching from familiar conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more puzzling including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which give them the expertise needed to carry out surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities.
