Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Downtown specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle.

After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Foot Institute Doctors are trained to deal with problems extending from standard ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which provide them the expertise crucial to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities.
