Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in approximately 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and quite a number podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive health care training with a concentration on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to address complications ranging from regular conditions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which supply them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent numerous conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
