Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and numerous podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical instruction with a focus on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to handle issues ranging from regular problems for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which give them the skill essential to perform surgery on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many troubles which the feet generally encounter.
