Edmonton Windermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Windermere specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received substantial health care training with a main focus on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to manage difficulties extending from standard conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which furnish them the skill required to carry out surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent a large number of complications which the feet frequently experience.
