Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and actually a number of podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained thorough medical training with an emphasis on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to treat difficulties ranging from conventional problems like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which furnish them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet routinely experience.
