Spruce Grove Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Spruce Grove concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in fact several podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained significant medical instruction with an importance on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to deal with issues varying from common conditions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which provide them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent a large number of complications which the feet usually encounter.
