Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend approximately ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained considerable healthcare training with a stress on problems regarding the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat problems varying from basic ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which provide them the experience essential to execute surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against numerous conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
