Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in fact many podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained wide-ranging medical training with an importance on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address problems ranging from typical ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which provide them the prior experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and defend against countless problems which the feet usually encounter.
