Bonnyville Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Bonnyville focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained comprehensive medical instruction with an emphasis on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to address conditions stretching from general afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which supply them the experience needed to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
