Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programs lie within these institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received encompassing medical instruction with an emphasis on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to handle difficulties ranging from familiar problems like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical instruction which give them the practical experience needed to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems enables a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of many conditions which the feet normally experience.
