Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend approximately 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained thorough health care training with a stress on complications concerning the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat difficulties ranging from normal conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which supply them the expertise essential to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and help prevent numerous troubles which the feet typically encounter.
