Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained encompassing medical training with a focus on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to deal with complications varying from general ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical instruction which provide them the experience essential to execute surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid numerous troubles which the feet normally encounter.
