Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired comprehensive medical training with an attention to on problems involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to address conditions ranging from normal conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience essential to execute surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of complications which the feet commonly experience.
