Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired extensive health care instruction with an emphasis on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for problems ranging from normal disorders for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the skill essential to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet usually encounter.
