Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained encompassing medical instruction with a stress on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to care for difficulties ranging from commonplace disorders such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which furnish them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
