Leduc Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Leduc specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in approximately 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually numerous podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive health care education with a focus on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. They are qualified to handle difficulties ranging from simple afflictions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical training which supply them the expertise essential to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet commonly experience.
