Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend approximately a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained comprehensive medical training with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to care for problems ranging from typical disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of countless troubles which the feet usually encounter.
