Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programs are contained within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough medical education with a stress on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to handle issues ranging from simple disorders such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet regularly experience.
