Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired extensive medical instruction with a focus on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address conditions ranging from usual ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which provide them the prior experience required to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and help prevent a large number of troubles which the feet routinely experience.
