Podiatrists: Richard Mandal

Lloydminster Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Lloydminster specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and actually numerous podiatry programmes are contained within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing medical education with a stress on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat concerns varying from regular conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the experience necessary to conduct surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against countless troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
