Edmonton Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Edmonton provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive medical training with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to manage problems ranging from commonplace disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which provide them the experience needed to perform surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and protect against countless troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
