Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain 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 in reality many podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired significant medical training with an emphasis on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to treat concerns ranging from standard conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many troubles which the feet frequently experience.
