Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive healthcare education with a concentration on complications regarding the feet and ankles. They are instructed to manage complications ranging from simple problems such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which furnish them the expertise required to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet generally encounter.
