Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received thorough medical instruction with a concentration on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for problems stretching from general disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise crucial to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.
