Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough medical training with an emphasis on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. They are educated to deal with concerns extending from conventional afflictions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which supply them the experience essential to perform surgery on those troubles that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of many problems which the feet normally experience.
