Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained comprehensive medical training with an importance on complications pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to address difficulties extending from basic afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which give them the experience essential to perform surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against numerous problems which the feet usually encounter.
