Edmonton Windermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Windermere specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and actually several podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial health care instruction with a concentration on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to handle complications varying from normal conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which furnish them the skill vital to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet usually experience.
