Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Lloydminster concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and actually various podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received wide-ranging healthcare training with a focus on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to manage conditions ranging from usual ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which give them the prior experience crucial to execute surgery on those complications that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against numerous troubles which the feet typically encounter.
