Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest approximately a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and actually various podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive medical instruction with an importance on problems concerning the feet and ankles. They are studied to manage problems ranging from regular disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent countless conditions which the feet usually encounter.
