Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired encompassing healthcare training with an importance on conditions regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address difficulties extending from commonplace conditions such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which give them the practical experience necessary to execute surgery on those issues that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems allows a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet usually encounter.
