Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle.

Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and numerous podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained wide-ranging healthcare training with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to manage complications extending from standard ailments such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise vital to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks.
