Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest around a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough medical education with a focus on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat conditions stretching from commonplace conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical instruction which give them the skill needed to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous troubles which the feet typically encounter.
