Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in about ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received comprehensive medical instruction with a concentration on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to care for concerns extending from common afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which give them the experience vital to execute surgery on those concerns that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous problems which the feet usually encounter.
