Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received significant medical education with a main focus on concerns involving the feet and ankles. They are qualified to handle complications varying from simple afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the expertise required to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and avoid numerous complications which the feet frequently experience.
