Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in around 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received encompassing medical instruction with a focus on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat conditions extending from regular conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which give them the practical experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough 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. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet normally encounter.
