Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programs lie within these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained wide-ranging health care training with an attention to on complications concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to care for conditions extending from familiar afflictions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which supply them the experience required to carry out surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities.
