Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive medical training with a concentration on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to treat problems ranging from simple ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet normally encounter.
