Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and various podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive medical instruction with a focus on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to manage problems extending from common afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical education which give them the skill vital to carry out surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet usually encounter.
