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 Podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs are located within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have gained significant medical instruction with an emphasis on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to deal with concerns ranging from commonplace ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against a large number of conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
