Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually a number of podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained significant healthcare training with a main focus on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to address issues stretching from common conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which give them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

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 withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
