Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained thorough medical training with an importance on problems involving the feet and ankles. They are skilled to manage complications stretching from familiar afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which give them the skill necessary to perform surgery on those concerns that are best treated 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 endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
