Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and various podiatry programs are located within these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received significant medical instruction with a stress on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to handle conditions extending from standard conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more puzzling including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which provide them the skill required to perform surgery on those issues that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise 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 tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous complications which the feet frequently experience.
