Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually many podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive medical education with a stress on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to handle problems ranging from general ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical education which supply them the expertise necessary to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and protect against numerous problems which the feet frequently encounter.
