Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote approximately a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical instruction with a main focus on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to treat conditions stretching from basic ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which give them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and minimize the risk of many problems which the feet regularly encounter.
