Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote around 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in reality several podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive health care instruction with a main focus on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to care for issues ranging from typical afflictions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the skill crucial to perform surgery on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and help prevent a large number of problems which the feet normally encounter.
