Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and several podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained encompassing medical training with an emphasis on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are taught to treat problems ranging from simple disorders such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which supply them the expertise essential to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.
