Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in around ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained extensive medical instruction with an emphasis on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to treat issues stretching from common problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which furnish them the practical experience essential to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against a large number of troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
