Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend around a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing healthcare training with an emphasis on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are qualified to treat difficulties ranging from general disorders such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the skill necessary to perform surgery on those complications that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise 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. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent a large number of troubles which the feet routinely experience.
