Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received extensive health care education with an attention to on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to treat difficulties ranging from general conditions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which give them the practical experience required to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge 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 activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of issues which the feet typically encounter.
