Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote about 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact various podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained encompassing medical instruction with an emphasis on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to manage difficulties ranging from regular afflictions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise necessary to perform surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.
