Lloydminster Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Lloydminster specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained extensive medical instruction with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to deal with complications stretching from regular ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which give them the skill essential to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of countless problems which the feet usually experience.
