Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and actually quite a number podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired extensive healthcare training with a main focus on complications concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat problems stretching from general conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which provide them the skill needed to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid a large number of complications which the feet generally encounter.
