Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained wide-ranging healthcare education with a concentration on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to treat conditions ranging from familiar ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the skill vital to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many problems which the feet normally encounter.
