Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and numerous podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive medical instruction with a concentration on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to deal with issues ranging from familiar problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which supply them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet routinely encounter.
