Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received encompassing health care education with a focus on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to care for conditions extending from common ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical education which give them the experience vital to perform surgery on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
