Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and actually various podiatry programs are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received significant medical education with a concentration on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to manage problems ranging from usual problems for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of many issues which the feet routinely encounter.
