Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained significant medical education with an attention to on complications concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat concerns varying from general problems for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which provide them the skill required to perform surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against a large number of troubles which the feet normally encounter.
