Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained comprehensive medical training with an emphasis on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to handle conditions extending from general ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which furnish them the prior experience crucial to conduct surgery on those concerns that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against a large number of problems which the feet generally encounter.
