Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received significant medical training with a concentration on complications involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for complications ranging from familiar problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical education which supply them the experience necessary to conduct surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and prevent countless complications which the feet routinely encounter.
