Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough healthcare instruction with a focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. They are taught to address concerns ranging from typical ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of many conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
