Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually several podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired considerable medical training with an emphasis on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to treat difficulties stretching from standard ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which furnish them the skill crucial to perform surgery on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid countless conditions which the feet commonly experience.
