Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired thorough medical instruction with an attention to on complications involving the feet and ankles. They are instructed to handle concerns ranging from usual ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the experience required to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent numerous complications which the feet generally encounter.
