Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired thorough medical training with an importance on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to care for complications ranging from general problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which give them the skill essential to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet regularly experience.
