Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and several podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained extensive healthcare education with a main focus on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to treat problems varying from simple conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which supply them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of issues which the feet normally encounter.
