Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging healthcare instruction with an attention to on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to deal with issues ranging from regular afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which provide them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent a large number of problems which the feet generally encounter.
