Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programmes are contained within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained wide-ranging healthcare instruction with an importance on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to treat issues extending from commonplace ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the expertise needed to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of countless complications which the feet routinely encounter.
