Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained significant health care training with a main focus on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to manage difficulties ranging from regular afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical training which give them the experience essential to execute surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
