Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in reality several podiatry training programs are contained inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired thorough health care instruction with a main focus on concerns involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat concerns ranging from general ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more puzzling for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience vital to carry out surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet commonly encounter.
