Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in approximately ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in fact various podiatry programs are located within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive healthcare training with an attention to on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to handle problems varying from general ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which give them the expertise required to conduct surgery on those troubles that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against numerous conditions which the feet routinely experience.
