Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in reality various podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained considerable medical education with a stress on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to deal with conditions extending from basic disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which supply them the practical experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet regularly encounter.
