Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough health care training with an importance on problems involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to care for problems stretching from common problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which supply them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid countless troubles which the feet generally encounter.
