Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received wide-ranging medical education with a focus on complications concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to manage problems stretching from familiar disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the skill needed to perform surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of problems which the feet frequently encounter.
