Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired considerable healthcare training with a focus on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address conditions ranging from familiar afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which provide them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against countless issues which the feet routinely experience.
