Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get 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 as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired encompassing medical instruction with an emphasis on problems regarding the ankles and feet. They are educated to address complications extending from usual afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the experience necessary to carry out surgery on those issues that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can provide pain relief and prevent countless troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
