Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired substantial medical instruction with an emphasis on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle difficulties ranging from general ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which provide them the experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet normally encounter.
