Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained wide-ranging medical instruction with a stress on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address issues stretching from conventional problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent numerous complications which the feet usually encounter.
