Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They devote around 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained substantial health care training with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. They are skilled to handle conditions stretching from commonplace conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical education which supply them the experience crucial to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of issues which the feet frequently encounter.
