Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually numerous podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive medical education with an importance on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat problems ranging from usual ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which furnish them the experience essential to perform surgery on those complications that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet commonly encounter.
