Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote approximately ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and numerous podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained wide-ranging medical training with a concentration on complications regarding the ankles and feet. They are trained to address difficulties ranging from typical problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the experience required to carry out surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent countless troubles which the feet regularly experience.
