Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend about 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained encompassing healthcare education with an emphasis on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat issues ranging from typical ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the prior experience required to perform surgery on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent countless issues which the feet typically experience.
