Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired encompassing medical instruction with an importance on problems involving the ankles and feet. They are taught to address conditions ranging from simple problems like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which give them the prior experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet typically encounter.
