Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and quite a number podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired encompassing medical training with an emphasis on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to deal with difficulties varying from usual ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which provide them the practical experience essential to conduct surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet commonly encounter.
