Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and several podiatry programmes are contained inside these schools. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received substantial medical education with an attention to on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to care for problems stretching from conventional conditions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which provide them the practical experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
