Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Camrose concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired substantial health care education with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to treat difficulties ranging from commonplace ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience required to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against many issues which the feet generally experience.
