Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend approximately ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and several podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received considerable health care training with a main focus on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. They are instructed to treat problems ranging from conventional ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which provide them the skill essential to execute surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent numerous conditions which the feet usually encounter.
