Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired encompassing healthcare education with an importance on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to deal with conditions ranging from conventional ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the practical experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent a large number of complications which the feet regularly encounter.
