Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote approximately 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received significant health care education with a main focus on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. They are qualified to address difficulties ranging from commonplace ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the experience necessary to execute surgery on those troubles that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of countless issues which the feet normally encounter.
