Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained extensive healthcare training with an importance on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat issues varying from standard afflictions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which give them the experience essential to execute surgical treatment on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet commonly encounter.
