Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Calgary Sunpark provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest around ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained considerable medical training with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to deal with difficulties ranging from familiar ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical education which supply them the experience crucial to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous complications which the feet frequently encounter.
