Bonnyville Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Bonnyville specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest about a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical education with a stress on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to handle complications stretching from basic ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which furnish them the practical experience required to execute surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against countless complications which the feet commonly encounter.
