Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

They are skilled to address conditions extending from standard ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
