Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programs are contained within these institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained comprehensive healthcare instruction with a main focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to treat issues stretching from conventional conditions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge 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 activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of complications which the feet usually encounter.
