Leduc Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Leduc concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest around ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received substantial medical training with an emphasis on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to handle issues ranging from typical disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which furnish them the expertise necessary to perform surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems permits a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and help prevent numerous complications which the feet typically encounter.
