Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial health care instruction with a focus on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle problems ranging from regular afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also 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 perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent countless conditions which the feet routinely experience.
