Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact various podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired substantial healthcare instruction with a focus on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to address difficulties ranging from conventional problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against a large number of problems which the feet regularly experience.
