Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in about ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical education with an attention to on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. They are instructed to deal with conditions ranging from simple ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which supply them the prior experience required to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore 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. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent a large number of problems which the feet frequently encounter.
