Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received significant medical instruction with a concentration on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to care for problems stretching from commonplace conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which furnish them the skill vital to execute surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous conditions which the feet usually encounter.
