Edmonton Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Edmonton specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and numerous podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained comprehensive medical training with an attention to on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to treat problems extending from regular conditions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which supply them the experience crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally 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 tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet frequently encounter.
