Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received wide-ranging health care education with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are taught to deal with difficulties ranging from general ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise essential to perform surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent countless issues which the feet routinely experience.
