Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and various podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained significant health care training with a main focus on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to manage complications stretching from standard conditions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which give them the skill vital to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against numerous conditions which the feet commonly experience.
