Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot.

After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained encompassing health care training with an emphasis on complications involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with problems varying from typical afflictions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the experience vital to perform surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities.
