Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote approximately 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and actually numerous podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received extensive healthcare instruction with a concentration on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to address concerns ranging from simple afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience crucial to carry out surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous complications which the feet routinely encounter.
