Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot.

Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in reality numerous podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions.

They are trained to handle complications extending from usual conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
