Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have obtained significant medical training with a focus on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat difficulties ranging from basic ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which furnish them the prior experience essential to execute surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet regularly encounter.
