Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained substantial healthcare instruction with a stress on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are qualified to treat complications ranging from standard afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which furnish them the prior experience crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities.
