Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and several podiatry programmes are contained within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial medical education with a main focus on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage concerns ranging from usual afflictions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical training which provide them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against a large number of problems which the feet frequently encounter.
