Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in an average of ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough healthcare education with a focus on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to care for problems stretching from general disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which supply them the practical experience vital to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against a large number of troubles which the feet regularly experience.
