Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in approximately 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and actually several podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained extensive healthcare education with an importance on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to care for problems ranging from familiar disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which give them the skill crucial to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet generally encounter.
