Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained considerable medical training with a main focus on concerns regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address difficulties extending from conventional conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the expertise required to conduct surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid numerous issues which the feet routinely encounter.
