Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in approximately 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in fact several podiatry programs lie within these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained significant healthcare instruction with an attention to on issues concerning the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat problems varying from conventional problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which give them the experience vital to execute surgery on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and avoid many issues which the feet routinely encounter.
