Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote approximately a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained comprehensive health care training with a stress on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to care for problems ranging from regular ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which supply them the skill required to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and avoid many complications which the feet regularly experience.
