Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest approximately ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired wide-ranging healthcare instruction with an emphasis on complications pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to handle problems stretching from simple problems like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive practical 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 activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous problems which the feet frequently encounter.
