Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually a number of podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received comprehensive health care training with an attention to on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to handle problems varying from usual ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against countless problems which the feet usually experience.
