Sherwood Park Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Sherwood Park focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs are contained within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received considerable health care instruction with a focus on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to manage problems extending from familiar ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which give them the experience needed to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet generally encounter.
