Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained wide-ranging healthcare education with an emphasis on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to address issues ranging from regular ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the skill essential to conduct surgery on those troubles that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise 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 carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid numerous troubles which the feet regularly experience.
