Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry training programs lie within these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive healthcare education with an importance on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for problems extending from general disorders like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical education which supply them the expertise necessary to perform surgery on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous troubles which the feet commonly experience.
