Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality various podiatry programs lie within these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained thorough medical instruction with a concentration on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to manage conditions extending from common problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which provide them the skill required to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many troubles which the feet usually experience.
