Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest around a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact many podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired encompassing medical instruction with a concentration on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to deal with difficulties ranging from conventional disorders such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which provide them the skill vital to perform surgery on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent numerous problems which the feet typically experience.
