Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and actually numerous podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained comprehensive medical training with an emphasis on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address problems ranging from normal ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which supply them the skill crucial to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against countless complications which the feet commonly encounter.
