Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough healthcare training with a focus on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to handle complications ranging from familiar conditions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which provide them the expertise required to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent many troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
