Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend around a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality numerous podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received significant healthcare training with an emphasis on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to manage complications ranging from normal conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the practical experience vital to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
