Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical instruction with an importance on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to deal with problems extending from basic ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which furnish them the practical experience vital to execute surgery on those conditions that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet routinely experience.
