Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained considerable medical instruction with an emphasis on conditions involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for concerns stretching from usual conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which supply them the experience required to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of many conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
