Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and actually many podiatry programs are located within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive health care instruction with a main focus on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat issues stretching from normal disorders such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical education which supply them the skill essential to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical 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 peculiarities permits a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent numerous conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
