Spruce Grove Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Spruce Grove specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and in reality many podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received substantial medical training with an emphasis on problems involving the ankles and feet. They are instructed to deal with issues extending from common disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which supply them the skill necessary to perform surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against numerous issues which the feet generally encounter.
