Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained substantial healthcare training with an importance on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to deal with concerns varying from usual disorders for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical education which provide them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against many issues which the feet generally experience.
