Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in an average of ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and actually several podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive healthcare training with an importance on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. They are qualified to treat problems extending from usual conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience essential to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also 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. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet generally experience.
