Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact several podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained considerable health care instruction with an importance on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to care for issues stretching from simple conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience essential to carry out surgery on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against many troubles which the feet generally experience.
