Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing healthcare training with an importance on problems concerning the feet and ankles. They are studied to treat difficulties ranging from familiar ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which supply them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive expertise 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. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet typically encounter.
