Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough health care training with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to care for issues stretching from conventional ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the experience essential to execute surgery on those issues that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of many complications which the feet normally encounter.
