Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote around a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received considerable medical education with an attention to on problems regarding the ankles and feet. They are studied to deal with issues ranging from commonplace disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which furnish them the prior experience needed to perform surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of countless problems which the feet generally experience.
