Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired wide-ranging health care training with an importance on complications concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to treat difficulties ranging from common ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience required to perform surgery on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet typically experience.
