Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained substantial health care training with a concentration on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to address difficulties ranging from familiar ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which supply them the expertise crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent countless complications which the feet normally encounter.
