Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest approximately 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received substantial healthcare training with a focus on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to treat problems varying from standard ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet regularly encounter.
