Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually several podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received significant health care training with a stress on concerns involving the ankles and feet. They are skilled to deal with conditions ranging from conventional 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 significant surgical education which give them the prior experience needed to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of many complications which the feet routinely experience.
