Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote approximately a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in fact many podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received thorough healthcare training with a stress on issues involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to address concerns ranging from standard conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which give them the prior experience crucial to execute surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid countless issues which the feet usually encounter.
