Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in around 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired wide-ranging healthcare instruction with an importance on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat issues varying from standard problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which provide them the prior experience crucial to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive 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 activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
