Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and actually quite a number podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received substantial medical training with an attention to on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage problems ranging from typical ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical training which furnish them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against a large number of troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
