Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote about ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and several podiatry programs are contained within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired significant health care education with a main focus on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to deal with complications ranging from commonplace problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which provide them the skill essential to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet typically experience.
