Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot.

Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and various podiatry programs are contained within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained encompassing health care training with a stress on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address difficulties varying from typical ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities.
