Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Calgary specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest around ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.
Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired considerable medical training with a stress on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are instructed to treat conditions ranging from usual problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which give them the experience needed to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best remedied through surgical treatment.
Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet generally encounter.
