Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and a number of podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained extensive health care education with a concentration on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. They are qualified to address issues ranging from general disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which give them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid a large number of issues which the feet typically experience.
