Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend around a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing healthcare instruction with an importance on concerns regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to manage issues varying from simple ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the practical experience needed to execute surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against a large number of complications which the feet commonly encounter.
