Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive health care instruction with a stress on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to manage concerns varying from familiar conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the prior experience vital to execute surgical treatment on those concerns that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet usually encounter.
