Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained comprehensive health care education with an importance on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to treat problems ranging from conventional ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which provide them the skill vital to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of complications which the feet typically encounter.
