Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate 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 standard medical school and in reality many podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received considerable health care education with an attention to on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to care for difficulties ranging from normal ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which supply them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those conditions that are best handled 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 go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent numerous conditions which the feet generally encounter.
