Lloydminster Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Lloydminster specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in around ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs are located within these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained considerable healthcare instruction with a main focus on issues involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to handle conditions varying from usual afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and defend against a large number of troubles which the feet generally experience.
