Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and many podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained encompassing medical education with a concentration on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to treat complications varying from standard disorders like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which give them the skill crucial to carry out surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and avoid many problems which the feet regularly experience.
