Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend approximately a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and actually many podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received substantial medical training with an emphasis on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are educated to deal with issues stretching from commonplace ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the skill crucial to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet normally encounter.
