Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained comprehensive health care training with an attention to on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. They are trained to deal with issues extending from typical ailments such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which provide them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and avoid many complications which the feet regularly experience.
