Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact many podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received substantial medical training with a main focus on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to handle conditions varying from familiar disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which give them the skill necessary to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against a large number of complications which the feet generally experience.
