Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing health care education with a focus on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to handle conditions extending from commonplace afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical education which give them the practical experience required to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also 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 activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent a large number of conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
