Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive healthcare education with an attention to on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to treat complications ranging from familiar disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which give them the expertise necessary to perform surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and prevent many problems which the feet usually encounter.
