Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in point of fact many podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained wide-ranging health care training with an attention to on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to treat issues stretching from regular ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which provide them the practical experience needed to conduct surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against numerous complications which the feet frequently encounter.
