Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained considerable medical instruction with an attention to on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to deal with complications stretching from standard problems for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical training which furnish them the prior experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have a thorough 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet routinely experience.
