Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received wide-ranging healthcare instruction with an attention to on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to deal with concerns ranging from conventional ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which provide them the prior experience needed to perform surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough 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 activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of many problems which the feet routinely encounter.
