Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in fact various podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive healthcare training with an attention to on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to address problems extending from usual ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the expertise needed to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent countless issues which the feet frequently encounter.
