Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in point of fact many podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired extensive health care training with an importance on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat conditions extending from general afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which give them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent many problems which the feet routinely encounter.
