Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually quite a number podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received considerable medical education with an importance on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are qualified to treat concerns varying from conventional disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical training which furnish them the practical experience needed to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and help prevent numerous issues which the feet generally encounter.
