Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact many podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained wide-ranging health care training with an emphasis on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to care for difficulties stretching from regular ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the experience required to perform surgery on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
