How do I extract a photo embedded in a word file without reducing the quality
of the image.

If your photo is "embedded" as an object, double-click or use right-hand
menu to Edit, and save it out from the tool that opens.

More likely though, you mean the photo has been pasted into the document
itself. In this case, try saving the document as a Web page - you should
find the photo saved out to a subfolder (possibly in more than one format).
