Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and various podiatry programs are located within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received considerable medical instruction with a focus on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to care for problems extending from general afflictions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which give them the expertise needed to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent numerous troubles which the feet normally encounter.
