Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote approximately 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired encompassing medical instruction with an importance on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to treat problems ranging from commonplace afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which furnish them the skill essential to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against a large number of issues which the feet commonly encounter.
