Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest approximately ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually several podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired extensive medical instruction with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with problems varying from simple disorders for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgery on those issues that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also 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 carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and avoid many problems which the feet normally experience.
