Spruce Grove Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Spruce Grove specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They invest around a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained comprehensive medical instruction with a stress on complications involving the feet and ankles. They are trained to handle difficulties stretching from standard problems like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which supply them the experience crucial to conduct surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors 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 activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many problems which the feet normally encounter.
