Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and several podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough healthcare training with a main focus on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to care for issues extending from normal conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive practical 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and prevent numerous conditions which the feet frequently experience.
