Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are contained within these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained thorough health care education with a concentration on conditions pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to deal with complications ranging from regular ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more puzzling for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which give them the prior experience needed to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet usually encounter.
