Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and actually many podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive medical education with an emphasis on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage conditions ranging from usual ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many conditions which the feet typically encounter.
