Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend about a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually many podiatry training programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained significant healthcare instruction with a focus on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for issues ranging from familiar conditions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience necessary to perform surgery on those conditions that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet commonly experience.
