Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote about 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in reality several podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive medical training with an attention to on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat complications varying from typical ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which give them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid many issues which the feet regularly encounter.
