Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality various podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired comprehensive medical training with an attention to on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are taught to treat conditions varying from typical conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience needed to perform surgery on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet frequently encounter.
