Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in about ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry programs lie within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive medical training with an emphasis on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. They are skilled to treat complications varying from conventional ailments such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which give them the expertise necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet commonly encounter.
