Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend approximately a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and several podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained encompassing healthcare training with a main focus on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to care for problems ranging from standard disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which give them the practical experience essential to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and help prevent a large number of complications which the feet usually experience.
