Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programs lie within these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial medical training with an attention to on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to care for issues stretching from usual problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which provide them the prior experience essential to carry out surgery on those issues that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of many issues which the feet commonly experience.
