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. They invest approximately ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and several podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired thorough medical training with a stress on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to treat issues varying from typical problems for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which furnish them the prior experience essential to perform surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent a large number of issues which the feet usually encounter.
