Physicians 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 a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired encompassing medical instruction with an emphasis on complications involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to handle complications stretching from standard afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which give them the prior experience required to execute surgery on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
