Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained encompassing healthcare training with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat problems stretching from commonplace afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent many complications which the feet commonly encounter.
