Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive health care training with a main focus on problems involving the feet and ankles. They are qualified to deal with concerns ranging from typical ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which give them the experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against numerous issues which the feet routinely experience.
