Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend about a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact many podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical instruction with an emphasis on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for issues ranging from general problems for instance, ingrown and fungal 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 substantial surgical education which provide them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough 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 enables a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
