Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical training with a main focus on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to treat problems ranging from commonplace disorders for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical education which furnish them the skill essential to perform surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against a large number of complications which the feet usually experience.
