Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in point of fact various podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained comprehensive health care training with a stress on issues regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat difficulties extending from conventional ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which provide them the practical experience essential to execute surgery on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet usually experience.
