Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest an average of a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received considerable medical instruction with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to deal with problems ranging from common disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical education which supply them the skill crucial to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet routinely experience.
