Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot.

Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

They are skilled to treat issues varying from commonplace ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
