Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired encompassing healthcare training with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are skilled to treat concerns stretching from standard ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which provide them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those complications that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet commonly encounter.
