Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact several podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained wide-ranging medical education with an emphasis on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to manage conditions stretching from simple disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
