Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and actually many podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired extensive medical training with a focus on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to handle problems stretching from normal conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which provide them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against countless problems which the feet frequently experience.
