Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in approximately a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually several podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive medical training with an attention to on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to treat concerns stretching from standard ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which provide them the experience needed to carry out surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet routinely encounter.
