Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs lie within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical education with a concentration on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are studied to manage problems varying from usual problems for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which give them the experience necessary to execute surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against countless complications which the feet typically encounter.
