Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired comprehensive medical instruction with a focus on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat concerns extending from general conditions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical education which furnish them the prior experience essential to carry out surgery on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against many complications which the feet normally experience.
