Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are located within these institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained comprehensive medical instruction with a concentration on conditions involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to handle difficulties ranging from normal afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which supply them the experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
