Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained extensive medical training with an emphasis on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with issues varying from commonplace conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many troubles which the feet generally encounter.
