Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in about a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in reality various podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained wide-ranging medical training with a focus on complications pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are studied to deal with problems ranging from normal ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the skill needed to carry out surgery on those complications that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and protect against many problems which the feet frequently encounter.
