Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote about a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained considerable medical training with a focus on concerns involving the feet and ankles. They are skilled to deal with concerns stretching from usual ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which supply them the expertise necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet frequently encounter.
