Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry training programs lie within these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough medical training with an attention to on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to manage issues ranging from basic afflictions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the prior experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid a large number of problems which the feet typically experience.
