Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and a number of podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired thorough health care training with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat complications ranging from commonplace ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which furnish them the experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and protect against a large number of complications which the feet frequently experience.
