Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive medical education with an emphasis on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to deal with complications extending from usual problems such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
