Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote approximately ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired comprehensive health care training with an emphasis on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to deal with problems extending from general ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which provide them the experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against a large number of issues which the feet routinely encounter.
