Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote around ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained extensive medical training with a concentration on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to care for difficulties ranging from usual ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which supply them the skill needed to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet commonly encounter.
