Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received encompassing medical education with a focus on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are studied to deal with difficulties stretching from common problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the skill essential to execute surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent countless conditions which the feet generally encounter.
