Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry training programs lie within these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained considerable healthcare training with a stress on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to handle problems ranging from commonplace problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which supply them the expertise crucial to execute surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against a large number of problems which the feet commonly encounter.
