Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained wide-ranging health care education with a stress on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to care for difficulties ranging from standard ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which provide them the skill needed to execute surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet generally encounter.
