Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained substantial medical training with an attention to on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to care for difficulties ranging from typical conditions such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which give them the prior experience vital to execute surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against many troubles which the feet usually encounter.
