Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained extensive health care instruction with a focus on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat problems stretching from normal problems like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which furnish them the skill required to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally 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 abnormalities facilitates a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
