Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad 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 regular medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained substantial medical education with a main focus on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to treat conditions ranging from commonplace problems for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
