Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 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 is similar to regular medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained considerable health care training with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to treat difficulties ranging from regular disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which give them the skill required to carry out surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet usually encounter.
