Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They devote around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually a number of podiatry programs are contained within these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial healthcare training with a concentration on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to care for problems varying from normal problems for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which give them the practical experience necessary to perform surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also 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 perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid countless issues which the feet generally experience.
