Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programs are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired considerable medical training with a concentration on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle problems extending from general conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which furnish them the experience vital to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent countless complications which the feet routinely encounter.
