Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received encompassing medical training with a concentration on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to handle complications extending from simple conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against many complications which the feet usually encounter.
