Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received thorough medical training with an attention to on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to treat complications varying from general afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which give them the skill vital to perform surgery on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of countless conditions which the feet regularly experience.
