Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired extensive medical training with an emphasis on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with problems varying from simple afflictions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which give them the skill crucial to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise 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 carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
