Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and actually numerous podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired considerable medical education with a focus on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to care for problems ranging from standard problems like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent numerous conditions which the feet typically experience.
