Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received significant medical instruction with an attention to on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to address conditions stretching from typical conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which give them the expertise necessary to perform surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
