Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in reality various podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received comprehensive medical instruction with an attention to on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are studied to treat issues ranging from commonplace disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid many problems which the feet usually encounter.
