Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and several podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial medical instruction with a concentration on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to handle difficulties extending from typical ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which furnish them the experience crucial to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of conditions which the feet frequently experience.
