Bonnyville Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Bonnyville concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality many podiatry programs are located within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired thorough healthcare training with an attention to on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage conditions varying from normal ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which give them the experience required to execute surgical treatment on those concerns that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent numerous problems which the feet routinely encounter.
