Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and actually several podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired wide-ranging health care education with a concentration on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to care for problems varying from typical ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise required to perform surgery on those concerns that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of many problems which the feet regularly experience.
