Edmonton Downtown Clinic Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Downtown concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and quite a number podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained considerable healthcare training with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to deal with difficulties ranging from commonplace ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical education which provide them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems allows a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and prevent numerous complications which the feet generally encounter.
