Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote around a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in reality several podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial healthcare instruction with a stress on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are skilled to treat complications ranging from familiar ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which supply them the practical experience needed to perform surgery on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against a large number of conditions which the feet normally encounter.
