Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive medical training with a focus on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to handle concerns ranging from general problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience needed to execute surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive 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 tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet regularly encounter.
