Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired encompassing healthcare education with an attention to on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to treat problems ranging from basic ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and avoid numerous conditions which the feet usually experience.
