Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive health care education with an importance on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to manage difficulties ranging from typical disorders such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the expertise crucial to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge 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 tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against a large number of troubles which the feet routinely experience.
