Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programs are located within these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained extensive health care training with a concentration on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are taught to deal with concerns ranging from regular ailments like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which supply them the experience required to conduct surgery on those complications that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough practical knowledge 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many complications which the feet regularly experience.
