Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and quite a number podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received considerable medical training with a concentration on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are trained to address conditions extending from conventional conditions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which provide them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally managed 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 experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and avoid many troubles which the feet normally encounter.
