Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained encompassing medical training with a concentration on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to manage conditions ranging from usual disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which furnish them the skill needed to conduct surgery on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid many issues which the feet generally experience.
