Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive healthcare training with an attention to on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. They are taught to treat problems stretching from familiar disorders such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more puzzling including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the experience vital to carry out surgery on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid many complications which the feet frequently encounter.
