Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received encompassing medical instruction with an importance on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to handle problems stretching from usual ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience required to perform surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of many conditions which the feet typically encounter.
