Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually various podiatry training programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained wide-ranging health care training with a main focus on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to treat conditions extending from conventional afflictions for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the expertise needed to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems allows a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent a large number of problems which the feet commonly encounter.
