Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained encompassing healthcare instruction with an attention to on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. They are taught to handle problems stretching from familiar ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the experience needed to conduct surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous issues which the feet generally experience.
