Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest an average of a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact various podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial healthcare instruction with a main focus on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to deal with difficulties ranging from regular disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgery on those conditions that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous issues which the feet routinely experience.
