Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained thorough healthcare training with a concentration on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to deal with issues ranging from general afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which supply them the experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many problems which the feet routinely encounter.
