Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend around ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired considerable medical training with a main focus on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for difficulties varying from usual disorders like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience crucial to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive knowledge 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet usually encounter.
