Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programs lie within these schools. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received considerable medical education with a focus on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to manage conditions extending from conventional disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which provide them the prior experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive practical 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 tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against countless troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
