Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained substantial healthcare training with an importance on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to address problems stretching from general afflictions for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
