Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend about ten years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon 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 completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive healthcare training with a focus on issues involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to manage conditions extending from familiar conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the skill crucial to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless troubles which the feet generally encounter.
