Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually many podiatry programs are located within these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive healthcare education with a focus on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to address difficulties ranging from general conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical training which supply them the practical experience required to conduct surgery on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of countless conditions which the feet normally encounter.
