Bonnyville Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Bonnyville provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend around 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained substantial medical education with a stress on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are qualified to manage complications varying from general disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which provide them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those issues that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
