Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired thorough medical education with an emphasis on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to handle difficulties stretching from commonplace ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical education which provide them the expertise necessary to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid countless conditions which the feet generally encounter.
