Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received considerable healthcare training with an importance on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat concerns ranging from normal ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the skill essential to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally remedied 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 undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous issues which the feet normally experience.
