Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained comprehensive health care training with an attention to on problems involving the ankles and feet. They are trained to address concerns ranging from usual ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities.
