Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and actually numerous podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have obtained encompassing healthcare education with an emphasis on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to deal with issues varying from conventional problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the practical experience required to conduct surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical 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 tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against a large number of problems which the feet commonly experience.
