Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in reality several podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained considerable medical instruction with an attention to on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. They are instructed to address difficulties ranging from normal ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid a large number of problems which the feet typically encounter.
