Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired wide-ranging medical training with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to care for concerns ranging from normal ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
