Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in an average of ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive medical instruction with a focus on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to address problems varying from usual ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of countless conditions which the feet generally encounter.
