Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired substantial medical instruction with a stress on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address conditions varying from commonplace disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which give them the prior experience needed to conduct surgery on those concerns that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against countless conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
