Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in around ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive health care education with a concentration on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to treat problems ranging from familiar ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which give them the skill crucial to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of many conditions which the feet typically experience.
