Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired comprehensive medical training with a stress on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to care for complications ranging from familiar problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the expertise necessary to carry out surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks.
