Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and actually several podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial healthcare instruction with a focus on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are skilled to care for concerns extending from simple disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which furnish them the practical experience necessary to conduct surgery on those concerns that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive expertise 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against a large number of complications which the feet routinely experience.
