Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest about ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained substantial healthcare instruction with an importance on problems involving the feet and ankles. They are instructed to treat problems stretching from general problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the prior experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet routinely encounter.
