Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received wide-ranging health care education with a main focus on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. They are trained to address complications ranging from commonplace afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which give them the experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge 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. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet normally encounter.
