Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and various podiatry programs lie within these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired thorough medical education with a stress on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are qualified to manage problems stretching from simple ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the experience required to execute surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent numerous problems which the feet commonly experience.
