Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial healthcare instruction with an emphasis on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle concerns stretching from commonplace disorders like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the skill required to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against a large number of issues which the feet routinely encounter.
