Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial health care instruction with a stress on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to manage complications ranging from common afflictions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which provide them the prior experience vital to carry out surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge 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.
