Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical training with a focus on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to care for problems extending from conventional problems like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which supply them the skill essential to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

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 experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet generally encounter.
