Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received wide-ranging medical training with an emphasis on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to care for difficulties stretching from regular conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which give them the prior experience needed to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and prevent countless problems which the feet commonly encounter.
