Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually many podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received encompassing medical training with a main focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat issues extending from conventional problems for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical education which give them the experience vital to carry out surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against numerous troubles which the feet usually experience.
