Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive medical instruction with an importance on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to manage conditions ranging from common ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which supply them the practical experience crucial to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many problems which the feet frequently experience.
