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 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in reality numerous podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired considerable medical education with a main focus on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to manage issues varying from regular ailments like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical instruction which give them the expertise required to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous conditions which the feet usually encounter.
