Chestermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Chestermere specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend around a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get 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 quite a number podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained considerable healthcare training with a main focus on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. They are trained to manage issues varying from common problems for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which give them the experience needed to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against a large number of issues which the feet regularly encounter.
