Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained thorough healthcare training with an emphasis on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to deal with problems varying from standard ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical education which furnish them the practical experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and prevent a large number of problems which the feet usually experience.
