Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and a number of podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing medical education with an importance on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to address problems ranging from common disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the expertise required to carry out surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent numerous complications which the feet routinely experience.
