Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained thorough medical instruction with an importance on conditions involving the feet and ankles. They are trained to manage issues ranging from usual conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical education which provide them the expertise required to carry out surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to 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 defend against countless troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
