Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy 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 get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are contained within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired significant health care training with an attention to on complications involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage difficulties ranging from familiar problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which give them the experience essential to perform surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and defend against numerous conditions which the feet usually encounter.
