Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality several podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired significant medical education with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with difficulties ranging from standard afflictions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which give them the experience crucial to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid numerous conditions which the feet generally encounter.
