Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in about a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive healthcare education with a stress on concerns involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with complications stretching from simple afflictions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which furnish them the experience vital to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against many problems which the feet typically encounter.
