Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in approximately 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received considerable healthcare instruction with a stress on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to treat issues ranging from conventional ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical education which supply them the expertise necessary to conduct surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities.
