Bonnyville Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Bonnyville provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and many podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing medical instruction with a main focus on problems involving the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat problems stretching from commonplace disorders for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical education which give them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those troubles that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise 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 perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against numerous issues which the feet routinely encounter.
