Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend approximately 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received substantial healthcare training with an attention to on complications involving the feet and ankles. They are studied to care for conditions varying from conventional disorders such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the experience needed to conduct surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and prevent many problems which the feet usually experience.
