Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote around ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired comprehensive healthcare education with a concentration on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are studied to handle problems ranging from conventional conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical education which give them the prior experience essential to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a comprehensive 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 problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many complications which the feet frequently encounter.
