Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in fact several podiatry programs lie within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired thorough medical training with an emphasis on complications concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to care for difficulties ranging from conventional ailments such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which give them the practical experience essential to conduct surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

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 receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many problems which the feet regularly encounter.
