Sherwood Park Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Sherwood Park specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend approximately 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programs lie inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired comprehensive healthcare education with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are taught to treat problems extending from general afflictions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and avoid many complications which the feet usually experience.
