Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and various podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received comprehensive medical instruction with a stress on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat complications ranging from normal afflictions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the prior experience crucial to execute surgery on those conditions that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against many issues which the feet regularly encounter.
