Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received significant medical training with a stress on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to manage problems ranging from standard ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the skill necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of countless problems which the feet routinely experience.
