Bonnyville Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Bonnyville specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in approximately a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical training with an emphasis on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to handle issues stretching from regular afflictions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which supply them the expertise necessary to execute 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 legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid many problems which the feet typically encounter.
