Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained significant medical education with an attention to on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are instructed to address problems ranging from familiar ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the prior experience required to carry out surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet commonly experience.
