Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and quite a number podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received considerable healthcare training with an importance on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. They are trained to treat problems varying from usual problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical education which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of complications which the feet typically encounter.
