Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in about ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and actually many podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received thorough medical training with an attention to on conditions regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to handle conditions stretching from normal ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which supply them the prior experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent a large number of problems which the feet regularly encounter.
