Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest about ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programs lie within these schools. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired thorough health care instruction with an importance on concerns involving the ankles and feet. They are instructed to deal with concerns ranging from simple ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the skill needed to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against numerous troubles which the feet normally experience.
