Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and actually numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained extensive medical training with a focus on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to deal with conditions extending from standard ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which provide them the prior experience crucial to carry out surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent countless problems which the feet regularly experience.
