Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging healthcare instruction with a main focus on difficulties involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat difficulties extending from conventional conditions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the practical experience essential to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and defend against a large number of problems which the feet generally encounter.
