Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and several podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received considerable health care instruction with a stress on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to treat concerns ranging from regular disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the experience necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and prevent a large number of conditions which the feet usually experience.
