Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend about 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive health care instruction with an attention to on issues concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to address problems varying from standard ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet generally encounter.
