Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They devote about ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and actually several podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received encompassing health care instruction with an emphasis on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. They are trained to care for complications extending from typical problems such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which give them the skill required to perform surgery on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
