Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually a number of podiatry programs are contained within these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained thorough healthcare instruction with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. They are educated to deal with problems varying from conventional disorders such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which provide them the prior experience essential to execute surgery on those conditions that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent many complications which the feet normally experience.
