Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired significant health care education with an emphasis on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. They are trained to manage issues varying from basic ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more intricate for example 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 carry out surgery on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against a large number of conditions which the feet usually encounter.
