Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Calgary specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend around ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality several podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.
At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired extensive medical education with a concentration on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to address concerns ranging from normal ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical instruction which furnish them the experience required to perform surgery on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.
Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and help prevent many conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
