Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They invest around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact many podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired thorough health care training with a focus on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to address concerns extending from normal ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which supply them the prior experience essential to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet normally encounter.
