Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive medical training with an emphasis on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat complications stretching from normal conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which provide them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet generally experience.
