Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained significant medical training with a main focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to manage concerns varying from general disorders such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which furnish them the experience vital to execute surgical treatment on those problems 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 submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against numerous issues which the feet commonly experience.
