Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained extensive medical training with an attention to on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. They are trained to treat concerns ranging from simple afflictions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which furnish them the prior experience crucial to conduct surgery on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent a large number of troubles which the feet generally encounter.
