Edmonton Windermere Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Edmonton Windermere concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and numerous podiatry programs are contained within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained considerable medical training with an importance on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address difficulties ranging from simple problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
