Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in around a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired encompassing healthcare training with a stress on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to treat concerns varying from common afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the expertise necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
