Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programmes are contained within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained considerable medical instruction with a stress on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are educated to treat problems ranging from typical conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which provide them the practical experience vital to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous issues which the feet generally experience.
