Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive health care training with an attention to on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to treat complications ranging from usual conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which provide them the skill required to conduct surgery on those issues that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and help prevent a large number of issues which the feet regularly encounter.
