Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained considerable healthcare instruction with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to manage complications ranging from general problems such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which give them the prior experience needed to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid a large number of problems which the feet normally experience.
