Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and actually various podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired extensive healthcare training with a concentration on conditions involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle difficulties ranging from basic disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which give them the expertise essential to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and avoid countless troubles which the feet normally encounter.
