Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually a number of podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive healthcare instruction with a main focus on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat complications ranging from common afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical instruction which give them the expertise required to execute surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet frequently encounter.
