Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received thorough medical education with a stress on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to address problems varying from conventional problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which furnish them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of problems which the feet routinely encounter.
