Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received extensive medical education with a stress on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to care for conditions varying from regular problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience necessary to execute surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and prevent numerous conditions which the feet regularly experience.
