Spruce Grove Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Spruce Grove specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in fact various podiatry programs lie inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians 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 Podiatrists have acquired wide-ranging medical instruction with an emphasis on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to handle conditions ranging from basic conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the practical experience essential to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough 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 tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent countless troubles which the feet regularly experience.
