Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received substantial health care training with a stress on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to care for conditions extending from conventional afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which provide them the prior experience necessary to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many troubles which the feet normally encounter.
