Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained substantial healthcare training with a stress on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle concerns ranging from typical disorders such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive expertise 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 deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against countless issues which the feet routinely encounter.
