Edmonton Windermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Windermere specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote around ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained encompassing medical training with an emphasis on concerns regarding the feet and ankles. They are qualified to treat conditions ranging from simple conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which furnish them the skill required to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet normally experience.
