Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained thorough healthcare training with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to treat problems ranging from simple conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which furnish them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise 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. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet normally experience.
