Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in about a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact various podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received extensive medical training with an attention to on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat issues ranging from basic disorders for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which furnish them the skill needed to perform surgery on those troubles that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and avoid many complications which the feet typically encounter.
