Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical instruction with an importance on issues regarding the ankles and feet. They are educated to manage problems varying from typical ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience necessary to perform surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent a large number of issues which the feet regularly experience.
