Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programmes are contained inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received wide-ranging healthcare education with a stress on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address problems stretching from general ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the experience crucial to execute surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
