Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained significant medical education with a focus on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to treat problems ranging from simple ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which supply them the skill required to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute 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 carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent countless conditions which the feet usually encounter.
