Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They invest about ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained extensive medical instruction with a focus on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle conditions ranging from normal ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the expertise essential to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many conditions which the feet normally experience.
