Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired extensive healthcare education with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are skilled to treat concerns ranging from conventional disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
