Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote approximately a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received substantial medical training with an importance on complications concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to care for conditions ranging from familiar problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which furnish them the practical experience essential to execute surgery on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive knowledge 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. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against many complications which the feet normally experience.
