Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained considerable medical instruction with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are educated to deal with concerns ranging from general problems for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
