Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend about a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are located within these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive medical training with an emphasis on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to handle concerns ranging from general disorders for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical education which furnish them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet normally encounter.
