Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend about 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get 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 several podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired considerable healthcare instruction with an importance on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat problems stretching from basic afflictions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which furnish them the experience essential to perform surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against many issues which the feet usually experience.
