Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and actually several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired extensive healthcare instruction with a concentration on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to treat complications varying from standard disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which supply them the prior experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can provide pain relief and defend against countless issues which the feet normally encounter.
