Edmonton Windermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Windermere specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained extensive health care training with a concentration on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat issues ranging from common disorders such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which supply them the skill vital to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid countless problems which the feet generally experience.
