Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They spend about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact many podiatry programmes are contained within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received thorough healthcare education with a main focus on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. They are skilled to address conditions ranging from conventional conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical education which furnish them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgery on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge 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. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against countless conditions which the feet generally encounter.
