Lloydminster Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Lloydminster specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained considerable medical education with a concentration on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. They are studied to deal with concerns ranging from usual ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which give them the skill crucial to conduct surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
