Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about ten years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received significant medical training with an attention to on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to address complications ranging from general ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical education which furnish them the experience needed to carry out surgery on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet usually encounter.
