Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained extensive medical training with an attention to on concerns pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat concerns ranging from usual ailments like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which give them the skill necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore 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 perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet usually encounter.
