Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained wide-ranging healthcare training with an emphasis on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to care for conditions extending from basic conditions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which provide them the practical experience required to carry out surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and prevent a large number of problems which the feet generally encounter.
