Calgary Beddington Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Calgary Beddington concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained significant medical education with an emphasis on conditions regarding the ankles and feet. They are taught to handle difficulties varying from commonplace ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical education which furnish them the skill necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
