Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained extensive medical training with a main focus on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat conditions varying from conventional afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid numerous problems which the feet usually encounter.
