Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote approximately a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received significant health care training with an emphasis on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat problems ranging from general ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical education which give them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and prevent countless problems which the feet routinely experience.
