Edmonton Windermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Windermere specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received considerable medical education with a main focus on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to treat difficulties extending from typical disorders such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the prior experience necessary to carry out surgery on those issues that are best treated 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 receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
