Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programs lie inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received considerable healthcare training with a stress on issues regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to deal with concerns ranging from usual afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the expertise necessary to conduct surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against many issues which the feet generally encounter.
