Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired extensive medical education with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are instructed to manage concerns stretching from familiar conditions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience vital to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.
