Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received considerable medical instruction with an attention to on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to treat problems ranging from regular ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which provide them the expertise necessary to carry out surgery on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against a large number of complications which the feet frequently experience.
