Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in fact several podiatry programs lie within these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial health care training with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to treat difficulties ranging from commonplace afflictions for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against a large number of conditions which the feet usually encounter.
