Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon procuring 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 completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired extensive medical education with an attention to on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to handle problems stretching from standard afflictions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical education which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of many complications which the feet commonly experience.
