Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and several podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received comprehensive medical instruction with a concentration on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to manage conditions ranging from normal afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which give them the practical experience necessary to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid numerous complications which the feet routinely encounter.
