Edmonton Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Edmonton concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and numerous podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received considerable healthcare training with a stress on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to deal with complications ranging from usual afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical education which furnish them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and avoid countless complications which the feet routinely experience.
