Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained comprehensive medical training with a focus on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to manage concerns ranging from general afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which furnish them the expertise essential to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many conditions which the feet routinely experience.
