Leduc Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Leduc specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact several podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received encompassing health care instruction with a concentration on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to care for problems ranging from conventional ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the skill vital to perform surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless conditions which the feet generally experience.
