Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received significant healthcare training with an importance on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are instructed to address concerns stretching from simple disorders such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which provide them the expertise necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough 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 activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of many conditions which the feet normally experience.
