Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain 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 as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes are contained within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have gained encompassing medical training with an emphasis on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to address conditions ranging from common ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet frequently experience.
