Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote approximately a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical instruction with an attention to on issues involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to manage problems extending from common problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which give them the prior experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against numerous issues which the feet normally encounter.
