Edmonton Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Edmonton focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in approximately a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are contained within these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive medical training with a main focus on complications pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to address problems extending from conventional conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which give them the experience essential to conduct surgery on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous issues which the feet frequently encounter.
