Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained wide-ranging medical education with a concentration on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. They are instructed to handle conditions extending from basic problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which supply them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise 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 enables a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of countless problems which the feet regularly encounter.
