Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend approximately 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive healthcare training with a stress on complications involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to handle concerns stretching from basic ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which supply them the experience essential to conduct surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet regularly experience.
