Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote about 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact various podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired considerable medical training with an importance on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. They are trained to deal with conditions varying from usual disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical instruction which give them the experience vital to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of countless issues which the feet usually encounter.
