Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend about a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality many podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough health care training with a stress on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with difficulties varying from normal afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise essential to carry out surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge 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 activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and prevent numerous conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
