Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received extensive medical training with a stress on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage conditions ranging from regular problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which provide them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet generally encounter.
