Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote around ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and numerous podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained significant healthcare training with an emphasis on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat complications varying from usual conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience crucial to perform surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent a large number of troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
