Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote around ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained comprehensive medical instruction with a concentration on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are qualified to treat problems ranging from familiar problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical education which give them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid countless conditions which the feet typically encounter.
